Ketchup typically lasts about 6 months in the refrigerator after opening for the best quality.
While its high acidity makes it shelf-stable, refrigeration is recommended after opening to preserve color, flavor, and texture.
Most commercial ketchups are gluten-free, but always check the label for distilled vinegar sources or thickeners if you have a severe allergy.
A mix of tomato paste, vinegar, and sugar (or honey) is the best substitute. Use a 1:1 ratio of tomato paste to the other ingredients.
Sugar is used to balance the high acidity of the tomatoes and vinegar, and it also acts as a preservative.
Freezing is not recommended as it can cause the ingredients to separate and ruin the smooth texture.
Most standard ketchups are vegan. However, some brands use bone char to refine their sugar; strict vegans should look for organic or certified vegan brands.
Lycopene is the primary antioxidant, which is more easily absorbed by the body from processed tomato products like ketchup than from raw tomatoes.
