Does anybody have a recipe for easy tomato sauce/ketchup? By easy I mean real easy.... and no fancy ingredients please.
![]() I've raided next door's vegeatble garden (with permission) and now have heaps of tomatoes. My neighbour had just pulled out some tomato plants which still had green fruit still on the vines. My green tomato relish is on the stove cooking as I type ![]() I also have enough ripe cherry tomatoes to make something with as well. I was going to make a chutney/relish wih those too, but we'll have enough jars of green to last us 2 years with what I cooked last week, and what's cooking now. I've looked at "all recipes" and "recipes dot com", but couldn't find anything suitable. Any suggestions gratefully accepted. Thank you. ![]()

Sadly I didn't get even one recipe suggestion for tomato sauce, or ketchup, so I ended up making this last lot of tomatoes into jam.
I do think that my husband thinks I'm fibbing. He still can't believe that he's eating tomato jam and not strawberry jam. They taste so much alike! ![]() I now have enough frozen tomatoes, and jars of relish/chutney to last us until our next season's crop will be ready. I daresay I'll have to look around for some different ways to use what's left because there are still several pounds of fruit left on the vines. I'll probably end up making more jam, but if anyone has other good ideas, I'd be happy to hear them.

You can make green tomato pie. Make it like you would an apple pie. It is really good

The first recipe in this link is for ketchup.....
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread86556.html I've not tried it but it seems simple enough. ![]() There is also a recipe for BBQ sauce. Not sure if you like that type of condiment or not.

Thank you for those recipes. I'll probably have a go at that BBQ sauce recipe, but the sauce calls for one 8-ounce can tomato sauce. What is that please? Would it be canned tomato juice, or pureed tomatoes?

Q. What is the difference between tomato paste, tomato purée and tomato sauce? A. To make tomato paste, the tomatoes are first cooked for several hours to reduce moisture, are strained to remove the seeds and skin, then are cooked further to reduce them to a thick, rich concentrate. Hope this helps! ![]()

Yes it does thank you Kitty.
It sounds just like the canned pureed tomatoes that are available to buy here, and I actually have some in the freezer which I made from my own home grown tomatoes. ![]() We use a lot of tomatoes in our cooking (soups, casseroles, Italian dishes, etc) so I tend to freeze any surplus that we get from the garden, in fact.... we used some last night in our boglinaise sauce. I looked at the ketchup recipe but we don't use molasses, so I think I'll try the BBQ one instead. I'm still trying to imagine green tomato pie Kitt ![]() ![]()
