Blanching Tomatoes

If the smell of blanching tomatoes is too much to handle, you can now say goodbye to the cumbersome boiling of water and lengthy processes. Now, preserve the freshness and vibrant colour of tomatoes in a fraction of the time, as the skins will be a breeze to peel. Enjoying the tangy sweetness of tomatoes just got a whole lot easier.

Method

Wash the tomatoes and give cross slits, like a little ‘X’ with a knife on both ends.
Place tomatoes in a microwave-safe bowl and into the microwave. Turn the knob to HIGH and run for 6-8 minutes.
Once the program is completed, the tomato skins should slide off easily, and the tomatoes should be pulpy.
