Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Begin by making sure you have a clean surface and plenty of containers for you to freeze in. See the notes below for ideas on what to use.
Wash all tomatoes and place them on a cutting board with a great tomato knife. I like this one.
Core all your larger tomatoes and remove any bad spots. Then from there just chop them into quarters or slightly smaller depending on the tomato.
If you have cherry tomatoes all you need to do is half them.
Drop them into your container you plan to freeze in and fill to your fill line.
Label and place them in your freezer and they will keep for 6-8 months.
