TESTER’S COMMENTS FOR TM METHOD
I cut the skinned and deseeded tomatoes in half and also cut the chillies in half and it worked well. All stated TM settings worked perfectly. For seasoning I added 1/2 tsp salt. Delicious relish.
Very easy to make, goes great with arancini!
Absolutely delightful. I am eating it on everything at the moment! Especially nice with a mature cheddar and crackers.
Could you freeze this – I want to make a bulk lot with a glut of tomatoes and afraid it won’t keep
This hasn’t been tested by our El Gusto testers, but it should work. Once defrosted, you may notice slight water separation—just give it a good stir.
