Easy Way to Peel Tomatoes

To make the best tomato sauce you need to remove the peels. The easiest way I have found is to freeze them. I just wash them off, cut off the stem and pop them in a gallon freezer Ziploc bag. Best to use the ripe, flavorful tomatoes out of your garden to make amazing sauce.

When you are ready to make sauce, simply defrost the Ziploc bag of tomatoes. I set them in the sink overnight or use the microwave defrost setting. Once thawed, use clean hands, and the peel will slide right off the tomato. Easy as that.
