Curry ketptchup is a gift sent from the gods.
I've tried it once and it was disgustingly sweet. I'm unsure if the praise is just a meme or it's another entry on the long list of typical german food I don't like despite living there.
Like all ketchup, some are too sweet, some are more tart. Find the ketchup you like, and add curry powder to it.
Out of all the curry ketchups you can get in Germany, Hela has the highest sugar content (source: me comparing the labels in the supermarket)
I love it 🍬
Hela ketchup is just really fucking sweet for some reason. It is also one of the worse Gewürzketchups I had, the supermarket brands usually are way less sweet and have an actual difference in the flavour of their different products.
Curry ketchup blew my mind the first time I tried it. Need to figure out where I can buy it from in the UK.
You can make it with curry powder, it's not so hard
Get your hands on some jalapeño puree ketchup, it's amazing.
How can you eat that stuff? It's supposed to be ketchup, not curry. And currywurst is also an abomination. Nürnbergers or polish white sausages!
Edit: typo
You don't like something, we get it. Can I enjoy something delicious in peace?
Wait until they hear about mayochup
Basically cocktail sauce?
Feel free, I don't hold you accountable to my opinion! I'm 100% sure that there are things in my cuisine that you'd find absolutely disgusting. Different people, different tastes.
But seriously: what is it good on?
It's a good. 1:1 replacement for ketchup in all cases you'd use ketchup, IMO
