What happens here
After blanching, immediately transfer the hot tomatoes to a cutting board. Use a sharp paring knife to gently peel off the loosened skin. Once peeled, cut off the ends of the tomato and gently squeeze out the seeds. Peeling and deseeding prevents a sour taste and unpleasant texture in the final canned product.
Goal: Remove skin and seeds from blanched tomatoes.
