What to Replace Ketchup With: You Won't Feel the Difference
Ketchup, together with mayonnaise, are the most popular condiments for dishes in Russia.
However, sometimes you want to replace the traditional sauce with similar products.
Culinary expert of HERE NEWS, cook and fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova is ready to list alternatives to ketchup.
What to use instead of ketchup
A healthier alternative to store-bought ketchup is its homemade version. Especially since you don’t need many ingredients to prepare the sauce, which you can probably find in the refrigerator.
Another option is tomato paste. It is also a healthier alternative due to the lower amount of preservatives in the composition.
Tomato juice can also serve as ketchup. Just make sure you buy a natural drink with pulp and no additives.
If you have not yet tried the Georgian sauce satsebeli, then this seasoning can also be an excellent substitute for ketchup. Especially since it is also prepared on the basis of tomatoes.
Sweet and sour sauce made from tomato paste is also suitable as a seasoning for French fries and other dishes that you are used to eating with ketchup.
