Lagniappe: While this does take time, if you are serious about excellent low-carb food with outstanding taste, this is the way to go. You can use the low-carb, store-bought catsup, which is good, but it is no comparison to homemade. This catsup will keep refrigerated and covered for up to 1 month. The difference is really in the net carbs. While low-carb, store-bought catsup has only 2 grams of carbs per tablespoon for both net carbs and carbs, this has only 1.2 g. of net carbs per tablespoon. If you use 1 cup, the difference is apparent. This homemade version has only 19 net carbs per cup and the store-bought version has 32. The taste is also a big added bonus!
Carbs per tablespoon: 1.5 g.
Net carbs per tablespoon: 1.2 g.
Calories per tablespoon: 9
