Most easy way to freeze
Wash the tomatoes and drain the water. Pat them dry. Cut them into small pieces. Take them into zip lock bags and close the bag. Try to remove the air as much as you can from the bags. You may use a drinking straw and squeeze out air from the bag. Press them slightly to flatten the bags. If the bags are flat, they take less space in the freezer. Keep your tomato bags in the freezer. They will be good for the whole year. You may use these tomato pieces to make soups, sauces, curries, dals and chutneys.
