Print Recipe Pin Recipe

6 oz can salt free tomato paste
6 tablespoons reduced balsamic vinegar * like Napa Valley Naturals Grand Reserve only 4% acidity and it's sweet
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon onion granules
1/4 teaspoon Allspice

Put all ingredients in a small blender container or a small food processor and process until smooth. If you don't have a small container you might need to double the recipe in order to process it properly. If it's too thick for you - thin it with a little water. Scrape it into clean glass jars with lids. Store in the fridge.

*If you don't have access to a sweet low acidity vinegar you might need to add a date or some date paste or date syrup to cut the acidity.

Variations:

For Jalapeno add a little fresh jalapeno or 1/8 - 1/4 Jalapeno powder

For BBQ Sauce add 1 teaspoon liquid smoke

For smoky flavor add 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

For Chipotle ketchup add 1/4 teaspoon ground chipotle chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder & 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin.
