The last of the tomatoes

Post by Richard »

Hi

I ate the last of the tomatoes today, as in whole.

Needless to say have made chutneys, sauces etc for the freezer, but for a morning fry up, they've all gone!!

What are you doing with your tomatoes?

I've got a tonne ( :? ) of little tomatoes in the freezer. Although they defrost mushy I love them with cheese on toast so that doesn't really matter and they'll still be OK to add to chilli or stews to bulk them out. They should last us all overwinter now )like(

I've had a bumper crop here, still have some green ones that are slowly ripening on my windowsill. I've made chutneys, tomato ketchup, slow roasted in jars of oil and frozen some puree for pastas and such. Plus we ate loads in salads (great in capri or greek salads) and I've been making lots of penne or gnocci alla sorrentina. Wish I had a bigger freezer and I would've frozen more puree. I've still got a panful in the fridge to do. )t'
