Ingredients

4 quarts ripe tomatoes (different color tomatoes will give different color catchup) *Be sure to peel, chop, and core your tomatoes before you start*

1 large onion - chopped

1 medium red pepper (or green...chopped)

1 1/4 teaspoon celery seed

1 teaspoon mustard seed

1 teaspoon whole allspice

1 large cinnamon stick

1 cup sugar

1 1/2 cups vinegar

Have a little salt and paprika on hand.

Jars with Lids

Directions

Put tomatoes, onions, and pepper in pot and cook until soft. Press mixture through a sieve. Cook rapidly until thick. Around an hour.

Reduce heat.

Tie all whole spices in a cheesecloth bag and drop into pot. Add sugar and salt to mix.

Cook on low about 25 minutes, stir frequently. Don't let ketchup stick to bottom of the pan.

Now add your vinegar, paprika, and cook until thick. Again, stir often so ketchup doesn't stick to bottom of pan.

Mixture should be boiling hot when you put into jars as usual, leave a little room at the top. Make sure your jar lid pops when you seal.

Note - if you grow everything yourself, it will taste better. Try it!
