Peeling Tomatoes

This can be a real timesaver! Bring about two quarts of water to a boil. Lower the tomatoes a few at a time into the boiling water with a slotted spoon. The skins will begin to crack after about a minute: as soon as a crack appears lift the tomato out with the slotted spoon. After a total of two minutes lift out any remaining tomatoes. Let them cool a bit, nick any uncracked skins with a knife, and slide off the skins. Discard the skins. Now wasn't that easy?
