Homemade Ketchup

Ingredients 
12 oz. tomato paste
1/2 c. honey
1 c. vinegar
1/2 c. water (or more, for a thinner consistency)
2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. garlic powder

Directions

Combine until smooth in a saucepan.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes (you’ll need to partially cover because it will spit hot tomato out at even the lowest simmer).
Keep refrigerated. If it thickens too much in the fridge, just add some water (a couple teaspoons at a time) to reach pouring consistency.
Makes 2-1/2 to 3 cups.


I do know some ppl who make it straight from tomatoes, but since we're in the off season for tomatoes we dont atm
