Peeled tomatoes – if you know this simple recipe, you will never buy them in a store!
As I mentioned HERE, last weekend our kitchen looked as if La Tomatina participants had moved to us for the after party;) Situation, that our kitchen turned into tomato compound, hat to be used as best as possible!
What does it mean? The fact, that stopping at ketchup would be a bit crazy and foreshadow the next tomato battle (which is not so inevitable looking at the number of inquiries about ordering :) ).
Today, however, the treatise is a bit shorter, because it is about peeled tomatoes. You probably buy them in supermarkets, because you don't know how easy it is to make them at home!
Ingredients
- 3 kilograms tomatoes (date, plum or san marzano)
- bay leaves, allspice
- salt
- fresh basil/thyme (optional)
Instructions
- We cut off the stalks, gently cut the tomato (cross cut) and burn in boiling water about 30 seconds. We peel.
- We put the prettiest tomatoes in a jar. We blend the remaining tomatoes, season lightly with salt and pour tomatoes with such a sauce.
- We add bay leaf and allspice for aroma. You can add a sprig of fresh thyme or basil.
- We pasteurize (20min).
Note
We used 0.8-0.9l jars, but it is best to close it in 200-300 ml jars to use the whole portion right away. Then you will get about 9 jars of this miracle from 3 kg of tomatoes.
