How to Make Blender Ketchup

  1. Quarter 4 pounds of ripe tomatoes.
  2. Remove stem ends from the tomatoes.
  3. Add 1 large green bell pepper, seeded and cut into chunks, and 1 medium yellow onion, peeled and quartered.
  4. Mix the tomatoes, peppers, and onions.
  5. Working in batches, add the vegetables to a blender, filling it ¾ full each time.
  6. Blend at high speed for 10-15 seconds, or until vegetables are completely pureed.
  7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until all vegetables are pureed.
  8. Pour the pureed mixture into a large kettle or pot.
  9. Add 1 ½ cups of white vinegar, 1 cup of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of ground black pepper, 1 teaspoon of ground allspice, ½ teaspoon of ground cloves, and ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
  10. Stir thoroughly to combine all ingredients.
  11. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
  12. Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the volume is reduced by approximately half (about 45-60 minutes).
  13. While the ketchup simmers, prepare hot, sterilized jars and lids.
  14. Carefully ladle the hot ketchup into the prepared jars, leaving ½ inch headspace.
  15. Wipe the rims of the jars clean, and apply lids and rings.
  16. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Ensure jars are completely submerged.
  17. Remove jars from the water bath and allow to cool completely. You should hear a 'pop' sound as the jars seal.
