How do I blanch vegetables?

Peeling tomatoes

Peeling tomatoes before using them in sauces or soups will result in a
much finer texture.

To make this an easy task, cut an "X" with a sharp
knife in the bottom of the tomato.

Place in boiling water and blanch, removing the tomato when the skin begins to curl.

Let the tomato cool slightly and remove skin with your fingers.
