Blanch and peel first. You could also stew them and can them as a

I simpy froze a mass load of summer glut tomatos & turned them in to tomato
sauce 6 months later. The tomatos kept ok in bags in the freezer & the
tomato sauce was great. Freeze excess tomatos or turn them in to sauce.
frozen tomatos go squishy when thawed so ideal for use in a sauce, pasta or
pizza.

No argument from me other than flavor can benefit from minimal advance
processing...
