MY LOW CARB CATSUP

My Low Carb Catsup image

Having just recently started the Atkin's Diet I needed a catsup with very LOW carbs. The tomato sauce I used has 4 carbs per 1/4 cup serving...so just make sure you use one with the same or less on the label.

Tips: Create Your Own Low-Carb Catsup

Choose ripe tomatoes. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and have no blemishes. Avoid tomatoes that are green or have bruises or cracks.
Use a variety of tomatoes. If you can, use a combination of different types of tomatoes, such as Roma, plum, and cherry tomatoes. This will give your catsup a more complex flavor.
Roast the tomatoes before making the catsup. Roasting the tomatoes will concentrate their flavor and make them sweeter.
Use a food processor or blender to puree the tomatoes. This will make the catsup smooth and consistent.
Add your desired seasonings. You can add garlic, onion, chili powder, cumin, or other spices to taste.
Simmer the catsup until it has reached your desired consistency. This will usually take about 30 minutes.
Store the catsup in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze the catsup for up to 6 months.
