Seeding TomatoesSummer is the perfect time of year to enjoy fresh juicy tomatoes in all types of recipes. It's usually not necessary to remove the seeds from tomatoes before using. But for some recipes, seeding the tomatoes can improve the dish's appearance or eliminate excess moisture. For example, it's not important to seed tomatoes when preparing a tossed salad. But it's nice to remove the seeds when making creamy tomato soup to ensure a smooth texture. And using seeded tomatoes when assembling a casserole can prevent it from becoming watery. To remove the seeds from a tomato, cut it in half horizontally and remove the stem. Holding a tomato half over a bowl or sink, scrape out seeds with a small spoon or squeeze the tomato to force out the seeds. Then slice or dice as directed in the recipe.

Really needs to sit overnight. I wasn't crazy about this as a salad but love it as a bean dip with Nachos. Also from WV so we used ramps instead of green onions.

I tried this for the first time and my guests went wild over it. It's a sure fire winner.

My family loved this salad, though I tweaked it a bit. I added an avocado, skipped the vinegar and added 2 TBS. of ranch dressing instead. Sue-Kat
