Many gourmets remove the seeds from the fruits before eating cut tomatoes.
This is done by people who believe that tomato pieces should be as dense as possible.
Quite often, this culinary technique is used when preparing a vegetable salad.
The cook removes the softest part of the fruit in advance so that the dish does not turn out ‘wet’.
However, the expert of the online publication ‘Belnovosti’ in the field of cooking, cook, fourth-category baker Yulia Arkhipova does not recommend doing this.
Why you shouldn’t remove the seeds from tomatoes
The fact is that the part of the fruit where the seeds are is the most aromatic.
That’s why it’s stupid to deprive tomatoes of the juiciest part.
In addition, the seeds are a source of a considerable amount of compounds useful for the body.
The only case when you should cut out the seeds from tomatoes is if the recipe for the dish specifies this.
For example, when preparing Neapolitan eggs, you still need to remove the juiciest part of the tomatoes.
