End of the season tomato question
I live in Portland, and it's been a really crappy year here for tomatoes. : ( It's most definitely fall now, as evidenced by the mid-60s and gray to slightly sunny-ish weather we've been having.
I have a bunch of large green tomatoes on my plants outside, and I'm worried they're not going to ripen. Can - and should - I pick them and bring them inside to ripen? I know they won't taste as good as vine ripened, but it's also getting pretty rainy and I've had problems with some of them splitting.
Re: End of the season tomato question
Yes, you can bring them inside to ripen.
Or, you can embrace the green-ness of them & cook them. Besides the ubiquitious fried tomatoes, I like making chutney (recipe in my blog) and pickled tomatoes (lots of recipes on the internet).
Good idea, kastle! I hadn't even thought about doing anything with them until they're ripe.
And thanks nitaw! : ) It gives me warm fuzzies when people think my pets are cute.
