So, some people asked for the #recipe of my #fermented #NoRefinedSugar #ketchup.🍅

I´ll share it here.

You need a small glass jar like the one om the pics (pic 2 curry paste). Important that NO AIR slips in whilst fermenting! Read following comments... ⤵️

1) Cleans the inside of the jar with boiling hot water to disinfect the jar. And keep hands, tools like spoons etc. clean & well rinsed to avoid detergents. Nature doesn´t like such things & we´re working with microbes here... 😉

Moment please, I´m gonna need a cup of coffee before continuing... ☕️

In the meantime... Check out this very interesting study reg. #honey and its health benefits. Because we´re gonna use some in the recipe and here´s why I use it and NOT refined sugar... 😉

Back in business... #Fermented #Ketchup #NoRefinedSugar

Ingredients:

20 fresh cocktail tomatoes
1,5 TBSP stock
35 g tomato paste
25 g honey
between 0-1 clove garlic

2. Mix tomatoes & squeeze them in order to get rid of some juice. No tomato soup please!

3. Now, just mix all the ingredients (including finely chopped garlic if you like) & put it in the jar! Try to keep it clean 😉

4. Put the lid on & let rest in a dark place with room temperature, until you see some action in the jar! Se the pic- bubbles!

5. Now time to let it rest a couple of weeks or more to 'mature' in the fridge! It´s OK to open it before, but make sure to let it rest some time in the fridge first!

It should be sour/sweet! If not; throw away! ⭐️
