Guest guest Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Any Good hints about deseeding? This is what we do. Cut the tomato in forths and scoop the seedy part out and discard. Some times I just squeez them out. For zucchini the same thing, but this time only cut in half and then scoop out. Or you can just buy the young and small ones before the seeds mature and become a pain to digest. We have had no problems just cooking the small and YOUNG ones, after slicing and peeling of course. We also make our own tomato juice with a juicer. You just throw them in after cutting in half...seeds and all....and the bad part goes into a conatiner in the back to be discarded. The juice comes out the front. Wonderful for making mixed juices! Apple/Beet is our favorite! (10 apples, 1 beet and one lemon!) Very good like taking a God made vitmain! Hope this help you to deseed better. Antoinette and Family of five SCD 2/06 (cd,adhd, add, asd and more) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any good hints about deseeding > tomatoes and zucchini? Thanks!!! Zucchini is easy if like me you use it a lot in flat strips (yummy as noodles or a base for a poached egg). Cut it in thin flat strips with a veggie peeler and stop when you get to the core which gets tossed. I just use tomato juice simmered down for sauces rather than de-seeding tomatoes. You could force the tomatoes through a strainer. > > Carol F. Celiac, MCS, Latex Allergy, EMS SCD 6 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Thank you so much Antoinette! I'm going to try it today! I did notice the seeds in the very small zucchini were very tender, so I didn't bother deseeding. Thanks again, and best wishes!!! Ronnie Re: Deseeding Any Good hints about deseeding?

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Thanks Carol, I love broiled tomatoes with swiss cheese, but we buy the plum tomatoes and by the time I pick out all the seeds, after grilling, there's not much left to eat. I'm waiting for the Jersey tomatoes to ripen. They are so delicious. They're also bigger, so I'll have more to work with! Take care, Ronnie Re: Deseeding > When I place a slice tomato on a non-stick frying pan, most of the > seeds come out, but not all of them. Any good hints about deseeding > tomatoes and zucchini?

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 Tomato seeds and the seeds from small zucchini's are not likely to be a big problem. Jody mom to -7 and -9 SCD 1/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 All seeds were a huge problem for my one child. You are wise to eliminate them. They were such a problem for him that I kept seeds out much longer than almost anything else. Cut the tomato in half, scoop out the middle (kind of like a cantalope) and then use what remains of the seeds and the skin. If the child doesn't have issues with nightshades, as many do, this will allow you to determine if it is indeed the nightshade or just the seeds. After a while I got tired of seeding everything and just got this stuff into him by juicing... which strains all the seeds out anyway. Much luck to you.
