Tomato Ripening Trick
Every year, David and I grow tomatoes on our patio. We like to nurture them, watch 👀 them grow, and of course, eat them. They are so fresh, and their taste is absolutely incredible. At the end of the season, when it’s time to harvest, we always have a bunch of them.
During that time of year, as the days cool off and the overnight 🌛 temperature drops, it might not be warm enough outside to finish ripening the tomatoes. What to do? – you ask. Don’t worry; you can still continue the process indoors.
Years ago, during the fall season 🍂 when it was rainy and damp outside, a friend of ours came over. As he was looking out at our garden at what was left on our patio, he asked us if we knew what to do with the rest of our “green” tomatoes. We actually didn’t, and that is when he gave us this Tomato Ripening Trick! At first, I was skeptical 🤨, but after following his instructions, a few weeks later, our tomatoes were perfectly ripe and ready to eat.
I do cook 👩🍳 a lot with tomatoes, and this Tomato Ripening Trick is a good one to know! There is no waste, and can enjoy them all, even after the warm weather is gone.
Here’s a quick list of recipes using tomatoes: Shakshuka, Classic Marinara Sauce, Greek Salad, as well as Greek Pizza 🍕, Garden Vegetable Juice, Italian-Style Bruschetta, Tomates à la Provençale (Tomatoes Provençal), Tomato Rosemary Focaccia, Mixed Tomato Salad, and many more…
When you watch the video 🎥, you might find the process unorthodox, but give it a try! For this Tomato Ripening Trick, you don’t have to go out of your way to buy any special materials or equipment.
As the days go by, you’ll see some of your tomatoes 🍅 ripening faster than others, and you’ll be able to enjoy the show as they “ripen”. I’m sure you’ll be surprised, just like we were, that this trick really works!
