Did you know that standard ketchup is nearly 25% sugar? One tablespoon contains about 4 grams of sugar. If you're trying to clear your skin, your favorite condiment might be the enemy.

The Ketchup Trap

Condiments are the most common source of hidden sugars. They don't taste 'sweet' like candy, so we eat them in large quantities. This homemade version uses apple cider vinegar and tomato paste for deep flavor.

Ingredients

  • 6 oz tomato paste
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper
  • Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan.
  • Whisk until smooth.
  • Simmer on low heat for 10-15 minutes to let flavors meld.
  • Let it cool before storing in a glass jar.
