Learning how to make tomato ketchup is super easy, especially with this spicy-sweet homemade ketchup recipe. Whips up in less than five minutes. Much healthier than grocery store ketchup! Makes about 5 cups.
Add olive oil and shallots to a small saucepan while it is still cold. Heat the pan over a low flame and cook the shallots until they begin to caramelize and smell sweet, about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally to keep them from burning. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
Drain canned peaches and reserve liquid. Add peach slices to a the carafe of a blender along with the pineapple, tomato paste, vinegar, pepper, chili flakes, tamari, cayenne, molasses, thyme, and 1/4 cup of the reserved peach juice. Top with cooked shallots and garlic, and pulse until completely smooth. Add more tamari if you prefer a saltier sauce, or more peach juice if you like it sweeter.
