NONNIE'S SCD KETCHUP
Growing up during the Great Depression and through World War II, my grandmother learned to pickle and can many sorts of foods: peppers, relish, vegetables, tomatoes. In lean war times, rations were scarce nationwide, and this was a necessity rather than a luxury. I feel so lucky that she has passed these family favorites on to me. This modified version of SCD ketchup might not have the same consistency of a store-bought version, but it is quite delicious just the same. - Raman
