Banana sauce

Though banana sauce can be easily found at Asian markets, the sauce can be easily made at home without all the artificial colors and flavors.

In the Philippines, bananas are used to produce ketchup in a commercial scale. Banana sauce resembles tomato ketchup in appearance but not in flavor.

Banana cultivar was blanched, peeled, mashed and cooked with spices and vinegar to yield banana sauce with favorable acceptability. The product is stable for almost a year.

Banana sauce looks just like regular sauce or ketchup and is made from bananas, tomatoes, sugar, vinegar and spices. It has a sweet and sour taste and doesn’t taste like bananas at all.

Though naturally a brownish-blonde hue, the newly created banana sauce was dyed a bright red to resemble the old standard.  Banana sauce became popular in the Philippines as tomato ketchup was in United States.

Banana sauce is cheaper than tomato sauce in the Philippines and is also commonly found in Hawaii and the West Indies. It is often used as a dip for fried chicken hotdogs and other fired dishes.
