Every gardener should make ketchup once in their life. You take a half a bushel of fresh tomatoes, some vinegar and salt, and a bunch of expensive sugar and spices. Cook them down for about 6 hours (Careful! Don't let it burn!) When you're all done, you have a pint or two of ketchup that's almost as good as the 20 ounce bottle of store-bought ketchup you could have bought for about $1. HTH :-) Bob grins While I've never made Ketchup, I totally understand the concept. ;-) With what I have to pay for water here in the city, it's cheaper to buy veggies, but there just is no substitute for the flavor of home grown tomatoes! -- Peace!
