Tarragon Tomato Salad
We made this salad to have along with our Egyptian Venison in Rich Onion Sauce dish. This Tarragon Tomato Salad was delicious, and served as a refreshing complement to the richness of the nights main fare.
1. In a pot, boil water. Turn off heat and place tomatoes into the pot to blanch. Make sure you have enough water to submerge all the tomatoes. Leave tomatoes in the water for 5 minutes.

3. Drain the tomatoes in a colander. Run them under cold water.
With a small knife, remove the skins from the tomatoes. Slice tomatoes as thickly or thinly as you want.
