How to Make Catsup
Stay Red Told
Homemakers who like to make
their own catsup are often disap
pointed to have it turn out brown
ish in color, rather than an attract
ive red like the commercial product.
A few suggestions which, if fol
lowed, will help in retaining the
original red color of the tomato juice
are offered by Miss Lucy Case, ex
tension specialist in foods and nu
trition at Oregon State college. The
first essential is to use sound, fresh,
ripe tomatoes, and remove all yel
low or green spots. Cook them in
an enamelware, earthenware or al
uminum kettle, as iron discolors to
matoes. A shallow kettle and rapid
cooking is also recommended.
Whole spices, tied in a cloth bag
which can be removed before bot
tling are best, avoiding powdered
spices. Paprika and red pepper help
to give a bright red color, while all
sice, black pepper and cloves darken
catsup. If clove flavor is desired, use
a small amount of oil of cloves. Add
sugar and salt only five minutes
before the catsup is finished, as they
tend to darken the color if added
early in-the cooking.
