This blew people's minds on Instagram
A few days ago, I posted some videos of how I process tomatoes for longterm storage* in my Instagram stories, and then my direct message inbox blew up with people asking about THIS:

This is an OXO food mill. It turns my tomatoes into a puree and removes the skins and seeds at the same time. Pretty cool, right?

Anyhoo.... Thought you might like to know about this cool tool in case you missed the original post.
