Bring a large pan of water to the boil. Cut small, shallow crosses in the base of each tomato and add to the water, blanching for 30 seconds or so. Transfer to a bowl of iced water to chill quickly
Once cold, peel the skins away from the tomatoes and cut in half. Remove and discard the seeds and core and dice the flesh. Weigh out 200g of the tomato concasse and save any extra for other dishes
