living in the woods and making stuff

Here is my first attempt to make ketchup. It takes a long time to finish! Roast tomatoes, puree them, cook them down with spices, puree them again, cook them down again, and then jar them and boil the jars! But I think that the result will be worth it for brunch on roasted potatoes.

fresh tomatoes, about 8 lbs

spice mixture
