Thats what we refer to as tomato sauce. Roy across the road gave me a great recipe for tomato sauce involving sugar, vinegar and various spices. Very nice stuff.

anyhow, we are both talking about the same thing but by different name. Tomato sauce/tomato ketchup. As I said, you americans must have some really good mass produced tomato ketchup if it is better than the home made stuff. The two recipes I have used for tomato sauce beat the mass produced stuff, the one recipe by some distance.

We would be if ketchup on the NA contintent didn't mean something that resembles at least in texture if not necessarily taste, Heinz Ketchup.
--Unless you're creating something like it.
Ketchup used to mean "sauce" IIRC and could be quite varied in flavour and ingredients. It didn't have to include tomatoes..
In the U.S. tomato sauce is basically nothing but tomato purried and cooked down. It might have a very small amount of sweetener, but it is very little and only added to make up for poor quality tomato.
If you substituted ketchup for any recipe that calls for tomato sauce, you're going to have a discusting meal that can only be tossed in the trash.
Actually, Heintz is quite decent. I don't eat a lot of it, but I like that brand quite a bit when I do...
If I make a cooked down "tomato sauce" for canning or freezing, it's generally flavored Italian style, or sometimes made into a Salsa/Picante.
Agreed... altho' the starving college student handbook has a recipe for cream of tomato soup made from the free condiments you can get at most fast food places. ;-)
Involves a cup of hot water, ketchup and coffee creamer packets.
Ps, I tried it just for grins one time at work...
and it works!
I once made spanish rice using ketchup. I can recall few grosser concoctions.
I didn't say it was good. But it worked... The creamer packets offset the taste of the ketchup.
You used it in spanish rice??? Why?
Lack of money. Young stupidity.
I understand. ;-)
