How to choose tomatoes for carving.

1. Starting about 2 cm from the center of the tomato cut towards the center keeping the blade of the knife just under the skin of the tomato

2. Cut around the center of the tomato keeping the outer cut the same distance from the center. As you get near the original cut aim to cut under and below it.

3. The outer cut should now be about 2 cm from the original outer cut.Continue cutting round the tomato keeping the skin all in one piece.

4. As you cut round make the strip of tomato skin narrower and narrower.

5. Finally cut the skin from the tomato. The skin should be in a single piece with a wide end and a narrow end.

6. Hold the tomato skin at the narrow end and start curling it.

7. Continue curling the tomato skin towards the wide end.

8. As you reach the end of the tomato skin put the curled skin on top of the end of the skin.

9. The finished tomato rose.
