Depends on how much you cook it down I guess, I think the right tomato wold increase the return. Next year I am definitely planting a paste type of tomato just for Ketchup Something with less water in. You would be surprised how much water is in there. I seem to remember loosing over half to evaporation


Rachel, You are welcome. let me know how it turns out. and anyone else who tries it.
