Skinning tomatoes

Tomatoes at Borough Market

To skin tomatoes, use a sharp knife, cut a little cross at the base of each tomato. Plunge the tomatoes into boiling water for no more than 30 seconds, then plunge them into cold water, to stop any cooking that might have started. You should then be able to pull off the skin from each tomato.

To skin sweet peppers or chillies, it's probably easier to roast and then skin them.
