8 plum tomatoes

Preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil. Put the tomatoes on the baking sheet. Set it 4 inches under the flame. Heat the tomatoes for 6-7 minutes until blackened in spots, the skins will split and curl. You'll lose a lot of the juice. Turn them over with tongs and cook 5 more minutes. Keep watch so that they don't get to dark. Set aside to cool.

If you don't want to throw away the juice, save it for spaghetti or pizza sauce.
