If I'm making salsa with fresh tomatoes I like to cut an X in the bottom and scald them then flash cool them in ice cold water so I can get the skins off.

It likely had a superbly complex flavor to it.

The best pasta sauce that I ever made, had about 30 different varieties to it. But, then there's the flaw. Unless one records the varieties and their amounts, it can't be replicated. :( :(

And, good to go with a red onion. The last bag of Vidalias that I bought looked good and felt firm on the outside, but some were starting to rot in the middle.

That would be your choice, ours (in 87°F/35.6°C) took the no burners/oven on route; vine to cutting board.

Depends on the skin thickness for me.

Jeppers, had we done this even one (1) week ago, we'd have had Ananas Noire, ergo, an everLUVin' A -to- Z.

No need to surrender. Your fresh 21 salsa was far harder to make.

I just put a tomato, here or there, in the freezer, throughout the season.
