This is a normal post I'm just saying...but...
If you run a knife over a tomato to make a small cross at the base then leave it in a bowl of boiling water for like 5mins the skin just lifts off, you can put like 20 tomatoes in a bowl at once, this has got to be quicker than blowtorching off the skin of each tomato individually and generates less mess. (i didnt read the article only watch the vid so apologies if you covered that)

This is a normal post 5 mins is a bit long, I'd say...

This is a normal post Yeah you can tell though
because the skin almost comes off itself thanks to the slit.

Oo-er

This is a normal post That is the traditional way called parboiling
The problem is it heats the entire tomato and cooks the fruit to a deeper level. to do it Proper, you would plunge the fruit immediately into Ice water to stop the heat.
this method minimises the heat that reaches the fruit.
Overall this is much faster, once you consider all the other preparation. Most times I flash several with thew torch before I peel.

This is a normal post Oh, fair enough.
I keep a clean kitchen, I'm not overly manic about cleanliness, but for some reason I cannot abide a dirty kitchen sink, it gives me the fear/rage.
