This lacto-fermented ketchup is probiotic rich, delicious, and so much better than what you can find at the grocery store.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups tomato paste
- 2 tablespoon Raw apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/8 teaspoon Cloves, ground
- 1/8 teaspoon Cinnamon, ground
- 1 teaspoon Fine ground sea salt
- 1/4 cup Dried cane juice (whole sugar)
- 2 tablespoons Whey
- 1/3 cup Non-chlorinated water
Instructions
Place all ingredients together in a bowl and mix well. Add additional water to thin consistency, if needed.
Transfer mixed ingredients to a clean quart-sized jar. Put a lid on the jar and place the jar in a warm place out of direct sunlight. Burp the jar each day to allow for the release of carbon dioxide that will build up in the jar during the lacto-fermentation process.
Once you begin to notice some bubbling or foam appearing on top of the ketchup, it is ready to be refrigerated. It should stay fresh for about 6 months.
