Why are tomatoes so good for you?
Tomatoes are so darn good for you. They contain a source of the antioxidant lycopene, which I know probably means nothing to you but all you need to know is that your body craves it as it has so many health benefits that help reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer. Tomatoes also are a great source of vitamin C, potassium, folate, and vitamin K. Red peppers are also a great source for vitamin C which is perfect for cold and flu season. Many people actually think oranges are the best source for the vitamin, but what they don’t know is that bell peppers actually have nearly three times more vitamin C in them than oranges do. Fun fact!

Is it better to roast or boil tomatoes? I find roasting tomatoes gives them a nice earthy flavor that adds a lot to a soup recipe. Where boiling tomatoes doesn’t really give you that for the purpose of soup. Does roasting tomatoes change the flavor? It’s different from a raw tomato, it has more flavor and less liquid per bite. It’s great for any dish where you want a strong tomato flavor but don’t want all the juices. Do you peel tomatoes before roasting? It’s up to your preference. Peeling your tomatoes gives it more of a super smooth texture, but if you’re blending your soup then you will get this texture anyway so you might as well skip the extra step. How long to roast tomatoes for soup? I roast my tomatoes for about 30 minutes to get the best flavor and consistency.
