The ones from the greenhouse are in a basket gradually ripening, as I've
described elsewhere.

The ones from outside plants were left just one day too late and a very
cold night damaged most of them. I preserved a lot but the rest were
showing patches of mould, some quite large.

So tonight's supper was egg, bacon, mushrooms and fried green tomatoes -
no salt, no sugar, nothing else.

I've heard of this but never had the courage to do it. I thought Spouse
would protest too. But we both enjoyed them! I'll never waste any again!

I always put my green tomatoes in a brown paper bag with a banana and they
ripen to a lovely red colour

Another suggestion.... I always put an 'Apple' in with my 'Tomatoes' in a
bowl, and they keep much longer ...I never put tomatoes in the fridge as it
ruins the taste !
