NOTES

  • To remove skin from tomatoes, bring pot of water to boiling. Put a small X on the top of the tomato.  Put tomatoes in boiling water for about 60 seconds. Remove and put into cold water for another 60 seconds. The skin should easily peel off.
  • Process – means blender or food processor. If you have neither chop the heck out of it with a knife. Goodwill though, has blenders for just a couple of dollars.
  • Pulse – means run your processor in short bursts until the ingredients are “chopped” into small pieces.
