This is simple and easy to peel tomatoes.

Start of by cutting a cross at the bottom of the tomato using a knife.

Then, but the tomato in a bowl, and fill it with hot boiling water.

Let it sit for around 3 minutes

Step 3: Peel the Tomato

After three minutes, take the tomato out of the bowl and peel the skin off of the tomato. This should be very easy, if you find it difficult, you can soak the tomato for longer.
