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!
Green Tomato Jam is also very nice. Dunno what prompted me to try - maybe
just a bad ripening year in the 90's, and a glut of them.
Recipe?
Please :-)
There is also Green Tomato Chutney.
Boring. And we don't eat much chutney anyway. This year I made some plum
chutney (to my own, unrepeatable :-( recipe) because a neighbour brought
stones of plums. It's great with a strong chees such as Quicke's Cheddar or
Lincolnshire Poacher.
