Homemade Stewed Tomatoes

Ingredients

• 10 ripes tomatoes
• 2 teaspoons salt

Instructions

1. 1

   Gather all ingredients. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Fill a large bowl with ice water and set it aside.

2. 2

   Cut a shallow X on the bottom of each tomato. This will make peeling much easier. Place tomatoes in boiling water until the skin begins to peel back, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.

3. 3

   Transfer tomatoes into the bowl of ice water; set aside for 5 minutes.

4. 4

   Remove tomatoes from water; peel off the skin with your hands and slice into quarters.

5. 5

   Transfer tomatoes into a large saucepan over low heat; stir in salt. Simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, until slightly thickened, about 20 to 30 minutes.
