That bottle of tomato ketchup sitting in your pantry can be used for so much more than simply dipping and dolloping over French fries.

Cooking with ketchup is the perfect way to add a unique taste to all sorts of savory dishes. It goes well with just about everything, from sauces to stews and soups to salads.

Thanks to its original creator, it can hit on all five tastes; sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami.

The Ketchup Cookbook brings together a collection of recipes that prove cooking with ketchup is a great way to make the most of mealtimes.

These 40family-friendly recipes include sweet strawberry ketchup, spicy chickpea ketchup curry, sticky country-style ribs, tangy Japanese-style ketchup spaghetti, the best-ever mini meatballs and many more.

Not only is cooking with ketchup easy and fun but it also brings a lot more to the table that you may think.

Ketchup is so much more than a condiment!
