What do you do with tomatoes that are a tad past their BLT or caprese salad prime? Ketchupify them. Nick Kindelsperger of The Paupered Chef, and our regular Dinner Tonight contributor, followed a recipe by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall. "It's almost good enough to eat with a spoon."...

Video: Ketchup Bottle Jam

What a fool I was to think I could only use a bottle of Heinz ketchup to dispense ketchup or frustrate me when it refused to release the ketchup I craved so badly. I could've also used it to make a bunch of noises and, with the power of my computer, edit the sounds so that they came together as pleasant beats and not sound like random knocks and clinks. Watch the video after the jump....

Serious Heat: Ketchups to Set Your Mouth on Fire

Editor's note: On Thursdays, Andrea Lynn, associate editor of Chile Pepper magazine, drops by to drop some serious heat. Even the biggest food snobs among us love ketchup. When I was in culinary school, a chef/instructor scoffed at the need for a ketchup recipe in our homework binder. "How can you improve on Heinz?" he asked. Well, we've discovered one way--add the power of chiles. While Heinz makes their own spicy ketchup spiked with Tabasco, we prefer these chile-ketchup concoctions, all highlighted in the March issue of Chile Pepper. Scott S. Clinton Dixie Delight reigns as a thick, robust ketchup-flavored hot sauce that will bring a little love to meatloaf. Melinda's offers a whole lot of ketchup craziness these days:...

Ketchup Macarons, a Savory French/American Snack

Photograph by David Lebovitz If you think these macarons are raspberry flavored, don't bite into them just yet; they're filled with ketchup and cornichon-flavored filling. Pastry chef David Lebovitz makes Pierre Hermé's ketchup macarons with pretty good results. "The taste wasn't bad and I could imagine these as a savory-sweet hors d'œuvre, rather than for dessert—which I think is what they're intended for," says Lebovitz. He shares the recipe in his post, but you can find this recipe and more in Hermé's French book, Macaron.

Glenny's American Fries, Ketchup Flavor

Glenny's, maker of Soy Crisps, also makes American Fries, snacks that "have the great potato taste of French Fries but are baked and have 70% less fat than potato chips!" Available in ketchup, yellow cheddar, and sea salt flavors, they're "krinkle cut for crispy flavor." I'm not entirely sure what makes these snacks "American"—is it the ketchup flavor? The cheddar? Or were they just afraid to call them "French" fries and wise enough to not call them "Freedom" fries? It's clever marketing, using the Old Glory in the background to rouse up patriotic sentiments of a nation. Somehow, America = fries + ketchup! Or, worse: America = dry, starchy, baked potato matter that stinks of ketchup. The unmistakable ketchup odor...

Don't Mess With Mustard

Aha! It was Colonel Mustard with the revolver in the kitchen. We all saw it coming. Ketchup has long been the all-American condiment poster child, as the default french fries dipping sauce and popular accessory to breakfast eggs and hash browns. One night, enough was enough and mustard couldn't take it anymore. The crime scene is the artistic brainchild of two bloggers, Skull-A-Day and Bent Objects. Relish was apparently too nervous to get involved....
