Banana Ketchup Recipe

Being away from the Philippines means missing most of its bounty; particularly Filipino food and authentic Filipino condiments. Most of our kababayans overseas can attest to what I’m saying. I’m quite lucky here in Illinois because there are Filipino stores and Asian stores around that sell Filipino food products. I can go any day to grab my favorite banana catsup and some Boy bawang as well.

What is Banana Ketchup? Most people outside or the Philippines are not aware about it. It is a condiment made from mashed bananas, vinegar, seasoning, and spices. It is very popular in the Philippines.

I’m quite lucky here in Illinois because there are Filipino and Asian stores around that sell Filipino food products. I can go any day to grab my favorite banana catsup.

What about our other kababayans who don’t have the convenience of having any Filipino store nearby? Where would they get their banana catsup to cook Filipino Spaghetti ? As I was searching around, I found an interesting post on  how to make homemade Banana Catsup. Below are the things necessary to make one. Hope this helps.

    why should it be cooked at 80-85 degree Celsius for 40 minutes? Why the specific temperature for that amount of time? Any chemical or biological reasons for that?
