Maybe I'm not organized enough, but I can never peel tomatoes properly using the blanching method. So I thought up this way of subjecting tomatoes to a "burning at the stake" punishment .Make sure that the flames reach every part of the skin properly! If you don't, you may end up with some patches that won't peel off.When the skin makes a "pop!" sound, I become unreasonably happy.Please be sure to use a fork with a handle that doesn't transmit heat. Otherwise you'll burn yourself! Recipe by Radorin cookpad.japan -

A Mysterious Way of Prepping Tomatoes A Mysterious Way of Prepping Tomatoes
I saw this on a documentary program about a tomato farm some time ago, and I wondered how they were preparing their own tomatoes. Later on, I had a chance to talk to someone from another tomato farm...and this was the way they were enjoying them too! Apparently it's something they do as a matter of course at tomato farms!You can cut the tomatoes in any way you want (the flavor won't penetrate whole cherry tomatoes, so cut them in half). When marinating the tomatoes, they should be immersed completely, so increase the liquid or cover the surface with a piece of kitchen parchment paper or similar. If you aren't fond of chilled tomatoes, leave them out at room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving. You can increase the amount of sugar! The tomatoes will become even sweeter. For 2 servings. Recipe by 874 cookpad.japan -
How To Easily Peel Boiled Eggs How To Easily Peel Boiled Eggs
I wanted to know why boiled eggs can be peeled easily sometimes and then they're impossible to peel other times. I did some research and this was the result. With this method, I have no more problems peeling boiled eggs! This method works so perfectly that I want to pass it down to my child (who's still a baby, though) and grandchildren (even thoughdon't have any yet) and to future generations!Through my research, I concluded that if the egg whites coagulate as quickly as possible, they separate from the thin inner skin of the egg, making it easy to peel.So starting with cold eggs and cold water doesn't work!!!
