Brown Sauce is where it's at.

Ive been having red sauce outta the cupboard for over 20 years, and months after its been opened. Hasnt killed me yet. The stuff is so full of crap not even bacteria seems to grow on it ha ha..

After trying many different types my favourite is the Kandee one, dad used to come home with the HP or Heinz stuff and it would be left there. He learned after a few years though. Youd only dip into it after you ran out of the Kandee cheap stuff, after you had your toasted rasher sandwhich made and you were desperate ha ha.

You don't have to. Especially in Ireland, as it doesn't get that hot.

IT PUTS THE BOTTLE IN THE FRIDGE!!!!

At home it was always kept in the press with no problems. Now in my own place it's kept in the fridge because it's where my boyfriend has always put it. Personally I think that if it doesn't need to go in a fridge it's better in a press, fridge space is sacred.

When I was a kid I thought that red sauce mixed with mayonnaise was the McDonald's secret sauce.

My brother's a real ketchup snob, according to him ketchup has to come from a glass bottle, the kind they had in Eddie Rockets. Otherwise it doesn't taste the same apparently..

I like a bit of red sauce.
I also like the green sauce:

Warm/Hot food onto fridge-temperature ketchup? Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo

In the press, with the small amount of butter in the butter dish (so you don't rip your bread to bits when making toast/sandwiches.)

Your brother must love punishment, because that's what glass bottles are. You have to throw them away when there's loads left in the bottle that just won't come out. Plastic ketchup bottles are the way of the future!

In my life I have been a strong campaigner for both Chef and Heinz ketchups.

Stopped all that recently though and now just buy my ketchup in Aldi.
Costs about a third of the price and tastes pretty good.

Plus I don't feel like I've been fleeced blind.
It's like €4 for a big bottle of Heinz, that's highway feckin robbery.

Keep it in the fridge, I don't live in a restaurant, so it would go off in the press.

Agricola · 23-07-2011 12:26AM

Dont need to keep it in the fridge cos the fúckin stuff disappears quicker than a priest's hand at a first communion.

And it's called TOMATO SAUCE, not red sauce, or ketchup.

I go old school crazy when that happens, rip the shirt, throwing feces etc.

KungPao · 23-07-2011 12:40AM

In the fridge, beside the american style mustard, 1000 island, mayo, BBQ, and sweet chili sauce.

DjFlin · 23-07-2011 12:45AM

I wondered about this myself last week, so I read the bottle. It said "Keep refrigerated once opened", so I do.

I wonder if when you start to drive you'll ever do 101km/h in a 100km/h zone, or 121 on a motorway

Paigne · 23-07-2011 12:47AM

Oh forgot to answer:

Name: Tomato sauce
Stored: Press
Brand: Chef (sambos, chips) or Heinz (frys, meat, spuds)

Cill Dara Abu · 23-07-2011 12:48AM

Press
Red-sauce
Chef

That is all!

Why would you call ketchup 'red sauce'?

Were there no other red sauces in Ireland or something? (Salsa, tabasco, etc)

The name was coined when the selection of sauces was literally limited to one or two. There was no Salsa or Tabasco available.

Similar to how there was only one type of cheese in Ireland until about 1975 - cheddar.

I remember reading an article on a French guy who turned up in Dublin, went into what looked like a "Deli", inquired if they sold cheese, and was answered "Yes, both red and white".

You have to remember the context when discussing food here (as we recently did with meat), this is only one generation back.

Brown Sauce is "HP Sauce" - HP Sauce has a malt vinegar base, blended with tomato, dates, tamarind extract, sweetener and spices.

The place for the red sauce is on the kitchen table.

wild_cat · 23-07-2011 01:02AM

I was raised on chef. Moved onto heinz when I moved out. I now have the organic stuff from lidl which is the nicest of the lot.

It's stored in the fridge mainly because my boyfriend puts it there and sometimes the really hot food vs cold ketchup is nice.

BTW... it was far from ketchup some of you were reared... its red sauce.

Speeding will never give me food poisoning, but storing food wrong will, and I'm never getting food poisoning again. Its not fun.
