How to Easily Peel Tomatoes in Few Seconds

How to Easily Peel Tomatoes in Seconds Peeling tomatoes can be quick and effortless with this simple kitchen hack! What You’ll Need: • Fresh tomatoes • A pot of boiling water • A bowl of ice water Step-by-Step Instructions: 1. Prepare the Tomatoes: • Wash the tomatoes and use a sharp knife to score a small “X” on the bottom of each tomato. This will help the skin loosen during the process. 2. Blanch the Tomatoes: • Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil. • Carefully drop the tomatoes into the boiling water. Let them cook for 15-30 seconds, or until you see the skin starting to curl or wrinkle around the “X” mark. 3. Shock the Tomatoes: • Use a slotted spoon to transfer the tomatoes immediately into a bowl of ice water. The sudden temperature change stops the cooking process and makes the skin easier to peel. 4. Peel the Skin: • Once the tomatoes are cool enough to handle (after about 10 seconds), simply rub the skin near the “X” mark, and it will slide right off!
