TRANSCRIPT
In my restaurant we go through a lot of tomatoes so I'm going to show you two ways to get the core out of a tomato really fast and really efficiently. Take both ends off the tomato. Stand it on its flat end and then cut off all four sides. The other way to do it is you take the top and bottom off your tomato. Make one slice and then insert the knife and sort of roll and cut at the same time, while you cut the core out of the tomato. Voila, and you've got perfect tomato ready for salsa. You can use the cores in vegetable stock. You can throw them in tomato sauce. You don't have to discard them completely.
