My dh's Amish mother raised him on this recipe. He MUCH prefers it over store-bought ketchup. It was a taste I had to acquire, but now my ds's also prefer this type of ketchup. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
3 quarts tomato juice
1 pint apple cider vinegar
4 -5 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 drops clove oil
5 drops cinnamon oil
4 tablespoons ground dry mustard
Directions:
1. Mix all ingredients& boil for 2 1/2 hours, or until thick.
2. Pour into jars.
3. (no need to heat filled jars).
4. I use'old' glass ketchup bottles.
5. It is not necessary for these to'seal.
6. 'My Amish mother-in-law has been making this her entire life, and has never used a'sealed' jar for this recipe, and it's always been great!
