Homemade Pesach Ketchup

This Pesach ketchup is a key ingredient in the Miriam’s General Tso Chicken from her new book Real Life Pesach Cooking.

If you use bottled ketchup, go ahead and take advantage of the convenience. If you don’t, however, this is a fabulous solution! 

Miriam says, “This ketchup recipe was originally created by my friend and editor, Chanie Nayman, who’s quite the pro at from-scratch Pesach cooking. She graciously shared the recipe with us.”
