Jul 9, 2018 at 11:57 comment added Cynetta @moscafj - Reduce the large chunks to any size desired with a food processor, blender, food millm potato masher or ricer. The orginal question was about removing the seeds
Jul 9, 2018 at 11:48 comment added Cynetta @moscafj - We seem to be miscommunicating. Please take the short amout of time to watch this 48 second video regarding deseeding tomatoes? It clearly demonstrates that a seive or a food mill is not needed and the clear juice is not reserved for making tomato sauce or tomato paste
Jul 9, 2018 at 9:24 comment added rackandboneman Sure they do not sometimes just boil the living daylights out of the product, just as you don't really care about seeds in a long-cooked (3hrs+) tomato sauce?
Jul 9, 2018 at 0:49 comment added moscafj @DrisheenColcannon hmmm...not my experience, maybe a food mill with different sized plates...or first option posted above. I'm usually left with skin and seeds, everything else comes out the bottom! What's your goal?
Jul 9, 2018 at 0:26 comment added Drisheen Colcannon @moscafj I tried a food mill and it does not separate the pulp, it just extrudes tomato juice. Any strainer large enough to pass pulp, will pass seeds.
Jul 9, 2018 at 0:20 comment added moscafj @Cynetta just pointing out that if one were making sauce vs. needing whole pieces without seeds, the process might be different. Your comment seemed to discard the need for a sieve leaving the tomato in large pieces, so I was just clarifying. I think the OP is looking to make a sauce, which would make a food mill much more efficient.
Jul 9, 2018 at 0:09 comment added Cynetta @moscafj - How does your comment relate to mine? I do not see it I've no clue how a commercial operation does it I provided a seed removal suggestion for a home cook and not an answer to the question
Jul 8, 2018 at 21:21 comment added moscafj @Cynetta I read this question sequentially with the other question about tomato paste/sauce, posted by the same author, so I was thinking seed removal and breaking down the tomatoes simultaneously...also, the title refers to "sauce". If you want larger pieces of tomato, the first two suggestions are, of course, not what you are looking for.
Jul 8, 2018 at 16:14 comment added Cynetta There are quite a few videos on YouTube showing a couple of ways to remove tomato seeds; slice in half on the equator, squeeze to remove 'clear' juices with seeds and clean residual seeds with fingers or spoon or cut in quarters from pole to pole and remove core with clear juice and seeds with a knife. I saw no indication of a seive being used. What was removed was apparently disgarded
