This Guy Pours Vinegar On This Weird Mixture. After I Tried It I’ll Never Buy It At The Supermarket Again!

These days Heinz is the leading producer and seller of ketchup. The company’s top spot can be attributed to clever marketing and always having their ketchup placed in prime locations on grocery store shelves. However, there is a way to make the tasty condiment at home and it will taste even better than the mass produced version.

By making ketchup yourself you can custom mix it into flavors that are more pleasing to your palette. Follow the simple recipe below for a quality alternative to the tasty dipping sauce, your taste buds will thank you.

First peel a small onion and cut it in half. Place a heaping tablespoon of brown sugar in a cup, fill it about halfway up with hot water, then stir to dissolve the brown sugar. Once the water has cooled place a half of the cut onion into the cup and blend it until smooth with a hand blender.

In small bowl combine a 200 gram jar of tomato paste with ½ teaspoon of mustard, ¼ teaspoon of ground cloves, ¼ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon of salt, and 3 tablespoons of white vinegar. Then add in the sugar and onion mixture you prepared earlier and whisk it all together.

The simple recipe is very quick and easy to make and you can customize it in a number of ways. If you prefer thicker ketchup don’t add as much of the brown sugar and onion water, and for a more thin, runny ketchup, just add more of it.

You can also substitute vinegars, a lot of people like malt vinegar in it, or add in hot sauce for a spicy kick. Experiment with whatever flavors you like! When you’re done just pour the homemade ketchup into an old bottle, or sealed container, and store it in the refrigerator to enjoy later.

This Guy Makes A Weird Slice Into These Raw Potatoes Before He Boils Them. The Reason Is Brilliant!

Potatoes are among the most popular and versatile food items that are readily available at any local grocery store. Just like rice, corn, and wheat, they rank among the world’s top grown crops and consumed foods. A potato can be transformed and prepared in many different ways and be served hot or cold. People love them mashed, baked, fried, hashed, steamed, and chipped.

One of the easiest and most basic ways to cook them is by boiling them in hot water until tender the whole way through. However, this leads to the biggest downside of whipping up a tasty batch of spuds, which is hands down having to scrub and peel them.

Their rough, pocketed skins are a pain to remove with a conventional peeler and if you have a bunch to get through it takes seemingly forever. This negative type of potato peeling experience can be forever banished if you employ a simple new method for doing the task.

YouTube extraordinaire and life hack genius DaveHax shows us the light in his video on how to quickly peel a potato. Start by picking one up and carefully cut a skin-deep slice all around the center of it.

Try to ensure that the ends of the cut meet each other and don’t make it too deep, cut just enough to break the skin’s surface. Place the prepped potatoes in an empty pan, pour boiling hot water over them from a kettle, then crank the stove up to boil them further, and remove them once fully cooked.

Drain the hot tater water into a separate pan and run the potatoes under cool water until they are safe to handle. Grab one and gently pull the skin off, pulling outwards from where you cu tit earlier. The skins should all slide right off and the potato will still be hot and ready to eat.

Try this almost effortless peeling method the next time you’re having potatoes for dinner, or when you need to shave minutes off your dinner prep time, and pass it along to convenience others!

This Guy Takes The Leaves Off The Top Of The Pineapple What He Does Next Is Unexpected!

Did you know that you can plant a pineapple simply by using one that you buy at the store? I didn’t, but now that I watched this video I’m going to try it as soon as I pick one up. It’s so simple and easy to do, and if you love pineapples and plants then why not? Clint, from gardenfrugal.com explains and shows how it’s done in this tutorial. He originally tried two alternative ways to do this, but only one worked for him, which is what he’s teaching us. For this tried and true method all you need is a ripe pineapple, a pair of scissors, and a cup of water.

Here is how to prepare the pineapple for growing at home: Take a pineapple that is ready to eat. Grab the green top in one hand while holding the bottom in another, then pull upwards, and twist it up and off. Start to pick off the bottom leaves, gently removing them until you begin to see some roots on the piece. Remove the small leaves from all around until you are past the point where the roots are popping out of. Finally, take a pair of scissors and cut the leaf tips off so they are squared. Be sure to get the tight inner leaves as well. Doing this will show you later on where new growth is taking place. You may need to re-trim them if they start to turn brown.

Once the trimming is complete, stick the top in a cup of fresh water and make sure to change it daily at first. Place the cup in a window sill where it can get lots of sunlight and stay warm. Soon you should see more white roots beginning to sprout and once there is good growth it’s time to transplant it. Take a plastic cup, small planter, or container, and place some soil in it. Being careful to not damage the roots, gently place the sprouted pineapple top in the soil, and fill in more dirt loosely around it. It should start growing and soon you’ll have your own pineapple plant!!

THIS Brilliant Way Of Cutting Apples Is So Easy. I Wish I Knew About This Earlier!

There is a simple, faster way to cut apples that keeps them fresh for much longer than most traditional methods.  Most people usually cut apples into quarters and end up with pieces of core left on the slices or try and hack it off haphazardly.  This video by Grant Thompson, “The King of Random,” demonstrates the handy technique and offers proof that it’s the smartest way to carve up an apple.

First, turn the apple upside down to stabilize and prevent it from rolling around when you cut it.  Imagine a tic-tac-toe pattern, with the center square lining up with the middle core part of the apple, and cut down along the lines holding the apple together as you slice.  You end up with 8 edible pieces and 1 core part that can easily be discarded.  If you keep the pieces together it will stay fresh longer since none of the flesh is directly exposed to air which turns it brown after awhile.  Slap a rubber band around the outside to ensure the slices stay together tight and pack it for lunch or a later snack.

An informal experiment was set up to test if this way is better than others.  One apple was cut regularly and left out untreated and two were cut tic-tac-toe style, bound with rubber bands, and one was treated with lemon juice, which is said to keep apples from turning brown.  After 9 hours the exposed ones turned brown, the held together one had slightly browned, and the lemon treated one was the freshest.  As to timing, the tic-tac-toe method was 5x quicker and left virtually no mess.

Additional apple slicing tricks are also covered in the video that show neat ways to present it when serving at home.  Briefly touched on is a way to cut up slices so that they can be rearrange into an apple swan.  It is covered in another video but seems like a great way to get young children to eat more fruit, or impress your guests!
