After last week i thought it would be nice to see what ketchup made just of yellow tomatoes turned out like. Its really great similar but interestingly different to red seems have have a lot less acidity.
There going along the same lines as for my red ketchup just a few tiny changes.
3.5kgs good sweet fleshy tomatoes chopped
2 small yellow peppers chopped
1 onion chopped
500ml cider vinegar
80g of sugar (less if your using super sweet little cherry tomatoes)
4 garlic cloves chopped
3 cardamon pods crushed
1 tsp of salt
1/2 tsp of the following:
white pepper
ground cloves
mace
all spice
cinnamon
(dont use to much! the flavors are supposed to subtly enhance the tomatoes not overpower them)
Put all the ingredients in a large heavy bottomed pot and bring to the boil.
Reduce the heat and simmer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
Pass the mixture though a food processor or food mill.
If the ketchup still feels a bit thin put it back in the pot and simmer until thickened.
(yellow seems to be a bit more watery than the red so it was simmered for an extra half hour.)
If its already nice and thick bottle or fill jars i find jars are just easier.
