Why do almost all recipes involving tomatoes tell you to peel them?
I can’t understand! Is a piece of tomato skin going to kill me?
I cannot think of anything more pointless than peeling a tomato, well, grapes maybe.
I recently found a great a pre-prepared Italian pasta sauce which contains whole cherry tomatoes (taste bombs in their skins) and roasted vegetables. It’s probably the best I’ve ever eaten.
So why the insistence on skinning tomatoes?
Some people (I know one!) cannot stand the skin. I refuse to skin them, if they are to be used in a sauce I blitz it and keep quiet. No complaints yet. Your ‘tast bombs in their skins’ sound fantastic
