Simple Homemade Stewed Tomatoes
Stewed Tomatoes are one-pot goodness. They're saucy goodness that goes perfectly on a number of different meals.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 28 ounces Tomatoes, approximately 10 tomatoes
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
Instructions
- Set a large pot of water on high heat.
- Clean all of your tomatoes and use a sharp paring knife to cut a small "X" in the bottom of each tomato.
- Once the pot of water is boiling, place the tomatoes into the boiling water and blanch for 2 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare a bowl filled with ice water.
- After the 2 minutes is over, remove the tomatoes to the bowl of ice water.
- Once the tomatoes are cool enough to handle, peel off and discard their skins and stems. Repeat with all tomatoes.
- Pour out the water from the pot and place the tomatoes back in the pot.
- Set over low heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 20-30 minutes until thickened.
Christina's Notes
- No‑peel hack: peel in boiling water for 20 sec or leave skins on for extra texture.
- Ideal thickness: stir occasionally to break up tomatoes.
- Adjust sweetness with a pinch of sugar or maple syrup.
- Spice it up: cumin & chili flakes for Cajun twist, add fresh herbs at end.
