Do I Need To Peel Cherry Tomatoes For Sauce?
It is not necessary to peel cherry tomatoes for sauce as they have thin skins that break down easily during cooking, and their seeds and flesh all contribute to the flavor and texture of the sauce. However, if you prefer a smoother texture, you can blanch the tomatoes in boiling water for a few seconds, then shock them in ice water, which will loosen their skins and make them easier to remove.
