What a great recipe, with clear directions! I needed to peel a couple of tomatoes to puree and add to my spaghetti sauce, but didn't remember how to blanch them. I looked up "blanch" and found this recipe. My small tomatoe was peeling at 1 1/2 minutes. The large one didn't peel, so I took out at 3 minutes, and after the cold bath, it peeled easily. Thanks so much!
