last days of canning: part 2

For my last canning project of the year, I decided to make homemade ketchup. This was a messy job. Red splatters everywhere! It was a crazy bubbling cauldron of tomato goodness. But the resulting ketchup was amazing. So much more flavourful than store-bought. Next summer I plan on canning way more. In the meantime, I'll be rationing my stock.

I followed this recipe from Bon Appetit. Even though the recipe says it takes up to two hours for the ketchup to reach the right consistency, mine took just over three hours. Totally worth it.
