about 2 cups, minced onions, hot peppers, salt, and spicy vinegar syrup.  
Heat carefully while stirring to prevent scorching until onions soften. Add  
measured amounts of red food coloring.  
Blend in a blender for a smooth catsup or use a grinder. The puree  
may be passed through a grinder 2 or 3 times to get a smooth catsup. If  
catsup gets too thick, add small amounts of water.  
Heat catsup to simmering point and pack hot into sterilized bottles to  
½
inch headspace. Seal partially. Pasteurize the catsup by immersing in a  
water bath with boiling water (212ºF) for 5 minutes.
