Can it be cooked with, or only used cold?

Both. When cooked, its sugar caramelises, which is exactly the effect you want in a grilling marinade or a homemade barbecue sauce.

Does it need refrigerating before opening?

No, a cupboard at room temperature is fine while the bottle is sealed. Cold only becomes useful once the product meets the air.

SIDNA ketchup is made from tomatoes, in the continuity of the house's know-how since 1932. It is the condiment of simple dishes and shared meals: chips, sandwiches, grills, and everything children dip before they taste.

In the kitchen

Its obvious use is as an accompaniment: chips, burgers, sandwiches, kebabs.

Less obviously, it works well in cooking. A spoonful in an over-acidic tomato sauce balances it immediately, thanks to its sweetness.

Mixed half and half with mayonnaise it gives a pink sauce ready in ten seconds — the one found on sandwiches and bowls.

In a grilling marinade, pair it with a garlic-flavoured vinegar and a little paprika: it caramelises as it cooks and gives chicken wings or kebabs a glossy crust.

Choosing it and keeping it

Before opening, a cupboard is enough. Once opened, the fridge is necessary, with the cap firmly closed.

Store the bottle upright: it stops the product drying around the cap and eventually jamming it.

If the contents look thinner at the top after a few days in the cold, that is a normal separation. Shake before use.
