Single-use ketchup or
expired ketchup
can both be utilized~

Hey there, readers! Do you go for fries or switch it up with cheese sticks when you eat a burger? I personally love pairing my burger with fries—it’s like they’re a match made in heaven.

Speaking of fries, you can’t leave out ketchup, right? Ketchup enhances fries and is versatile for various dishes like egg rolls and sautéed sausage with vegetables. Today, let’s explore some unique ways to use ketchup, including those single-use packets or expired bottles you might have lying around. Trust me; after reading this, you’ll indeed be hoarding those leftover ketchup packets!

Effective for Removing Sink Stains

1. Sink Stain Removal

Sink stains are inevitable and quite a nuisance. Using ketchup, you can remove those stains and add some shine to your sink.

Not only removing stains but also adding shine

All you have to do is evenly apply single-use or expired ketchup to the stained sink using a toothbrush. Using a toothbrush ensures that you reach all the nooks and crannies. After letting it sit for some time, rinse it off with water, and voila—your sink will be spotless.

Ketchup Boosts the Flavor of Under-fermented Kimchi

2. Cooking Kimchi Stew

Some might find it odd to add ketchup to kimchi stew. However, ketchup can save the day if your kimchi isn’t fully fermented and you still want to make a tasty stew. The acidity in the ketchup enhances the flavor, making under-fermented kimchi taste just like well-fermented kimchi. Add a tablespoon of ketchup for a two-person serving, and you’re ready!

Ketchup as a Rust Remover

3. Rust Removal

Did you know ketchup is highly effective in rust removal? Kitchen items like scissors or knives can easily rust over time. Thanks to the ‘lycopene’ in tomatoes, which make up ketchup, rust removal becomes a breeze.

Mix ketchup and baking soda in a 1:1 ratio for even better results and apply them to the rusted item. For small rust spots, plain ketchup will do. But for stubborn rust, use the baking soda mixture.

A must-have for beer snacks

4. Making Sausage Veggie Stir-fry

One of the easiest dishes you can make with ketchup is a sausage and vegetable stir-fry. It’s a simple recipe using ketchup, chili paste, corn syrup, sausages, and vegetables, making for a convenient side dish or even a great snack to accompany your beer.

Let’s keep the leftover ketchup

A Tip for Leftover Ketchup

Leftover ketchup is safe to consume for about 3 to 6 months after expiration. However, it’s best to taste a small amount first to ensure it hasn’t gone bad. Typically, ketchup has a shelf life of 6 months to a year, so keep that in mind.

So there you have it—some ingenious ways to use your leftover ketchup, whether for stain removal, rust removal, or cooking. Salim Bro has more tips and tricks coming your way, so stay tuned! Goodbye for now!
