Method Of Blending Tomatoes In A Blender

Tomatoes can be blended for pasta, because most pasta dishes need fresh sauce. Blended tomatoes can also be placed at the base of a salad dressing. If someone has plucked fresh tomatoes from their garden, then this is the best way to consume them.

Take 3 cups of ripe tomatoes, 2 tbsps of olive oil, 1 tbsp lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Put the tomatoes and olive oil in the blender, and if the tomatoes are large, then they have to be cut into quarter pieces. If the tomatoes are smaller, then they can be sliced into half pieces, or put in the blender as a whole. Add 1 tbsp of lemon juice in the blender, and salt (it is optional), and then blend the mixture for 1-2 minutes. If the mixture isn’t smooth and frothy, then keep on blending until it becomes a good drink. People can have it with ice and a squeeze of lemon, or it can be used for pasta sauce.
