Drain and slip off the skins, and place in a large bowl. Meanwhile combine the lime with 2 quarts water and shake thoroughly, allowing residue to settle to bottom of jar. Pour the lime water over tomatoes and soak 10 minutes. Lift tomatoes out of water with slotted spoon and save the lime water. Using tip of sharp knife incise bottom of each tomato with a small cross.
