Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

It's crazy how much sugar is in commercially made ketchup. This homemade variety is sugar-free, and fresher tasting too.

46 ounces tomato juice (spicy is fine)
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup sugar substitute like Splenda
1 teaspoon dehydrated chopped onions
1/2 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
1 tablespoon dehydrated green pepper flakes
1 pinch dried rosemary
1 pinch dried green onion
1 pinch dried thyme
1 pinch dried basil
1 pinch dried parsley
Combine the tomato juice, vinegar, and sugar substitute in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Bring to a strong simmer. Stir in the remaining ingredients and reduce the heat to a low simmer. Let cook, uncovered, for 3-4 hours or until thickened. Stir occasionally.
Let the ketchup cool completely then store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
