I make exceptions with my amine allergies here and there. Ketchup is one of those things. I know I ought to not use ketchup because of the tomatoes (and because it’s probably been sitting on a shelf forever, building amines), but I love it so much. I figure it’s high time I make myself a low-amine substitute ketchup. This no-tomato ketchup is gluten-free, vegan, soy-free, and low-amine. Enjoy this tomato-free ketchup recipe!
Also, I’m happy to report that I had a batch of my no-tomato ketchup frozen for a couple weeks. I just thawed it, and it thawed PERFECTLY. You can make it in large batches and freeze it in week-sized portions!
1 C fresh cranberries
1 large pears (or mild apples), peeled and cored (about 1 C)
2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped (about 1 C)
1 C water
1 tsp ascorbic acid
1/4 C sugar
1 Tbsp salt
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp allspice
1/8 tsp ground cloves
- On medium low heat, cook all ingredients together, covered, in a small pot for about 15 minutes.
- Once all the no-tomato ketchup ingredients are well softened, remove from heat.
- Use an immersion blender or food processor to blend the tomato-free ketchup ingredients together. Process until very smooth.
- Store in your fridge, and freeze any you won’t get to in small batches. It thaws perfectly and is just as good thawed as fresh!

I would love to make this recipie as my son is missing having tomatoe sauce or what you ketchup. I am from Australia so I am unble to buy fresh cranberries. Do you think there would be a different berrie or ingredient to replace them.
Are you able to get them in your freezer section? Frozen would be best. Otherwise, possibly canned or reconstituted (unsweetened) dried cranberries might work (perhaps with some tart apple mixed in). In my no-tomato marinara recipes, I use granny smith apple (tart apple), onion, beet, sweet potato… Perhaps some combination of these?

Hi! So thankful to find this recipe! My daughter is sensitive to cranberries, do you think in would work with cherries or raisins?thanks for your help.
Dianna
You’ll want to find something more bitter/tart. Sour cherries would work (though cherries are also high in amines), but not raisins.
