Directions

Bring a large pot of water to boil, plunge tomatoes in for 30 seconds. You should see the skins starting to separate from the meat. Remove the tomatoes with a slotted spoon or spider, plunge immediately in a pot of ice to stop the cooking.

Once cool, peel the tomatoes. Discard the skins. Dice the tomatoes up to desired size.
