Synopsis
First produced from a secret recipe devised by Henry J. Heinz in 1876, Heinz Tomato Ketchup is one of the most iconic and recognisable brands in the world. This colourful and entertaining gift recipe book celebrates this much-loved sauce in all its glory - history, recipes, food photography and beautiful archive material as well as hilarious trivia and anecdotes. Paul Hartley's collection of original recipes shows how Heinz Ketchup can be more than just a dollop on the side of your plate, and how it can be used to transform recipes from the bland to the delicious.
