Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Cutting board
• Small paring knife
• Round, firm tomatoes

1. Remove the tomatoes from their package and clean them under cold water. Do not scrub the tomatoes, or they will bruise. Dry them with clean paper towels.

2. Put a clean cutting board on a counter or table with something underneath so that it does not move.

3. Place the tomato on its side on the cutting board.

4. Hold the tomato with one hand. Insert a small, sharp paring knife into the tomato, next to the stem and just outside the core. Hold the knife steady while cutting.

5. Point the knife at an angle towards the center of the tomato and create a full circle by rotating the tomato as you cut just around the stem. Remove the core with the end of the knife.
