Ketchup tastes great on pasta

r/

Ketchup is basically just cold, sweet tomato sauce. If tomato sauce is acceptable on pasta, why not ketchup?

Plus, we put ketchup on other starches like fries, for example. How is pasta any different?

    There’s Napolitan spaghetti, a Japanese twist on the dish that uses ketchup as main ingredient.

    Lots of sugar (high fructose corn syrup) in ketchup.

    You might be on to something. In the Phillipines, they make their spaghetti with banana ketchup instead of a tomato puree sauce. If you’ve ever tried the spaghetti at Jollibee, that’s basically it.

    Have you ever had hot or warm ketchup?

    I can assure you it’s nothing like traditional pasta tomato sauce.

    I just got a cook book today that uses ketchup for the sauce on spaghetti neapolitan!! It has some other stuff as well but I thought it was interesting that it used ketchup instead of tomato paste or sauce. The book is Effortless Bento.
