My friend buys the canned tomatoes and puts them into the blender, and purees them, thus, she says, eliminating the seeds. She does not like to just put the stewed tomatoes into the pasta sauce. I personally do not mind them when eating fresh.

Hi, Nancy, and List, To core a tomato, using the point of a paring knife, cut at a 45 degree angle around the stem, going toward the center of the tomato. You will end up with a piece, tapering to a point with the stem end being the widest. If you are slicing a tomato, there is no need to remove the seeds. For some recipes, though, it is better to remove them for a thicker more concentrated sauce. For example, if you are making fresh salsa, it would be better to remove the seeds before chopping the tomatoes. Hope this helps.
