I'm curious if you do the dip-in-boiling water peel on the tomatoes before putting them in the pie?

it's most important to use well drained tomatoes or the pie will be mushy.
I'll have to put it on my getting far too long 'things to try list'. Have to wait 'til there's good looking tomatoes in the market, I gave up on growing in the backyard, just too much heat here for them to do well it seems.
I add sundried tomatoes but not the ones in oil. This is really to insure that it's not too runny. It takes a lot of time/work to get those tomatoes drained. and salting the tomatoes while draining on paper is a help too.

I was thinking maybe salt them and let sit in a colander a bit before draining on paper.
Maybe you could bake a couple of tomato 'tarts' so you could have enough just for yourself.
OP, I like a little crumbled bacon in mine.
this brought back some memories of when my grand dad saw the widow murray down the road from my aunt s house way back when . mid 1960s . Grandpa talked about the widow murray and referenced her to a real tomatoe , then my aunt came outside on the porch and said that woman is a pure tart I tell ya . LOL ....
