Default GREEN TOMATOES

I used to have an Ortho book, All About Tomatoes, that had a recipe for
Green Tomato Chocolate Cake. It was really delicious, too! Try Googling for
green tomato chocolate cake recipes and I bet you'll find some.

Eat them green as fried green tomatoes. I had done so for the first
time this year and they're great. No need for a fancy recipe, just
fried as they are. Excellent.

Just wonder whether you could freeze them green and eat them at your
liesure?

I've got a good recipe for green tomato chutney, and I know they're
good in some curries. Does anyone have any other ideas for their use
please?
With the nights getting so cold I'm wondering how long mine will last
on the vine, and they're still VERY green.


I don't think some of them will ripen, if I have to take mine off the
vine now. But a friend is a 'panicer' and I think he's going to strip
his vines before they get a chance to go much further, and, as I'm a
chef he's asking me for recipes. I wouldn't normally buy them green,
and this is the first year I grown them in this flat.



In many tomatoes you can look at the blossom end of the green ones. If
you see a white(ish) star there it is mature and will ripen.
