How to Make Chipotle Ketchup

  1. Sauté 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped, in 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-low heat until golden brown (about 10-15 minutes).
  2. Add 28 ounces (794g) canned crushed tomatoes and 1/2 cup tomato juice, crushing any remaining large pieces with the back of a spoon.
  3. Stir in 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons ketchup, 1 tablespoon chipotle powder (or more, to taste), 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
  4. Carefully transfer the mixture to a food processor or blender and puree until smooth. Return the ketchup to the saucepan and cook over low heat for an additional 15-30 minutes, or until it reaches your desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
  5. Let cool completely before transferring to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Enjoy!
