I have seen another RU-vidr do an experiment with green tomato ripening with banana's vs apples vs just tomatoes all in paper bags and one bowl left in the light the bowl in the light was by far the fastest method wasn't even close I personally think they prefer to be in light that's how I'm doing it this year might save a few to experiment with for my own reference.

Try pickled tomatoes; take all those green tomatoes, wash them, put them in a large glass jar mixed with carrots, cauliflower, mustard seed, sliced garlic, horseradish. make a salty solution of 2 tbl of canning salt to 1 l of water. boil the solution, let it cool and pour it over the tomatoes. seal the next day to make sure everything is covered. amazing in a month or so.

I've never had success with the newspaper wrap so..this time I used the apple method, in a box, without paper wrap, covered top with a towel, they've done Great. Oh yes, also in single layer. I've wrapped little ones in a towel with an apple, loose fold towel, like a sling...they do very well. Kept them upstairs in our warm kitchen, didn't have a large amount. Also...in years past, I used the green tomatoes to make relish...it's excellent and tastes as good as any cucumbers.

That jar is gorgeous. Michaels has lots of jars like this.

@robz1girl 12 лет назад

Nice suggestions for tomatoes I also like your glass container you had sitting there on the counter with you that is beautiful

@hisbeautifultruth5931 4 года назад

Thank you! Just out in my garden and saw a broken plant with 3 near perfect green 'maters. One might have blossom end rot, but I will try your tips. Thanks again!

@msdixie1972 3 года назад

Add calcium next time to your soil for the blossom end rot :) rectifies it in no time! You can use ground eggshells also, but that takes a few months for it to get into the soil... do that in winter for your tomato planting areas. ☺️

@usaearthling 12 лет назад

Love the salsa verde made with the green tomatoes. I'll have to make the fried green ones. TFS

@justangvano 12 лет назад

Thanks for the tip Allen. I have always kept my apples in the fridge with my other produce and now I know that I shouldn't do that unless I want rotten vegetables.

@bennjanse 11 лет назад

I`m giving it a try - thanks☺☺☺

@jsaw200 10 лет назад

@Sandra-nx3pl 8 лет назад

@Szaroptka 11 лет назад

Good tip :)

@bluklank8679 4 года назад

Thanks for the tips! You pronounce 'white' like Stewie in Family Guy when he pronounces cool whip. That's adorable haha

@kathymichaels3676 7 лет назад

I pulled up my large tomato plants that were green (had freeze). Put the plants in a bucket with now dirt. I stopped watering. I also stripped the plants and left only large green tomatoes. I put them in my new greenhouse and they ripened in three weeks. I have pics if interested.

@marycurtis4894 12 лет назад

So you do know about fried green tomatoes i love them

@Mononoke28 12 лет назад

The same works for avocados. I always wrap them in newspaper and put them in a dark place to ripen them faster.

@stalkerlohh 12 лет назад

i have always thought that u need to simply put them on the windowsill so the sun can shine onto them and they start ripening

@janiceb4679 8 лет назад

Haha. "See the movie"! 'Fried Green Tomatoes', the movie that is... cult classic. I was looking for a site to get tomatoes on the vine to ripen faster. They do seem to take so long. Guess that's why they're soooo good. Need to be patient, I guess.

@rodgerson8 11 лет назад

Nice information. Thank you. God loves and Jesus saves. Doug of Gospel Harmonica.

@Cristiano48239 6 лет назад

The movie is brilliant, Fried Green Tamatoes at the whistle stop cafe?

@dodgedabullet670 5 лет назад

Short of long...wrap the thing in paper & place in box in cool dark place (55-70F)...dependent on ethylene gas to ripen off the vine.

@joelcordeiro2079 8 лет назад

Can you do this in a large wicker basket or must you use a cardboard box?

@robz1girl 12 лет назад

Thank you usaearthling. I will have to find a Micheals or P Allen Smith could just ship it to me ;-]

@heliotropezzz333 2 года назад

How long do they take to ripen?

@Area51Gregos 5 лет назад

Uh, pickle some quartered green ones in vinegar, water, kosher salt & some pickling spice! Jeez better than any store bought pickle I ever had personally... I can eat a whole quart jar in one day! So I got High BP...

@dezandloper6838 4 года назад

clever thinking:using ethyl!

@MB3448 10 лет назад

I like the salsa. Verde option better

@sexymelop 7 лет назад

Salsa Verde is made with tomatillos.

@kimberlybeeson3613 4 года назад

I hope my green tomatoes turn red

@davidyow 10 лет назад

aren't you worried about being worried about everything?

@aprilamerio9343 6 лет назад

davidyow lmao!!!

@cdoooc2542 8 лет назад

salsa verde is made with tomatillos, not green tomatoes

@nolawest5183 7 лет назад

Yup! It's a green fruit, small that looks like a tomato, but it has an outer sleeve it grows with, & it's leaves & the "Toma - tillos" [silent "L"] are rather sticky. I remembering back to a greener time in my life... but Chris, you are spot on! Thanks!

@Chopin1397 3 года назад

Is that some kind of law you’re reciting? Where does this stupid law come from? What happens if I break the stupid law?

@ccardp.i.1403 3 года назад

Chopin1397 My beautiful Latina wife will have me pick green tomatoes to make wonderful salsa verde. She also makes from tomatillos (store bought). I agree with Chopin 1397 and not the self appointed green sauce police

@frightfoo8440 8 лет назад

Just put them on a window ledge and theyll ripen no probs.

@bobsmith-nm2ms 5 лет назад

Wrong. Putting tomatoes on a windowsill will cause the sunlight to give them a tough skin.

@djprovince852 2 года назад

I would caution you not to use colored newspapers as the chemicals used can be toxic. My 2 cents.

@TomyIneXtriCable 3 года назад

"Another way to accelerate the temperature is to add apples to the box." Apples are heat-emitting fruits after all,thank you,kind sir!

@hdzhdz5637 3 года назад

Salsa verde its not made from those green tomatoes .. Its made from Tomatillos the kind that has the thin paper case 😅

@sandracal92 5 лет назад

You give me the vibe that you're proud of your heritage 🚩🏳️🚩🔥✝️👻

@usaearthling 12 лет назад

@wickedlady1979 10 лет назад

Aren't you worried about the chemicals on the newspaper transferring into your fruit?

Why is this channel subscribed to me? i dont post vids lol

@wisestudent1463 10 лет назад

That is one age old method.....But thy never taste as good as vine ripened !!!!

@JacobFare 9 лет назад

Yeah they do... i've got loads of green tomatoes that are starting 2 ripen and there been off vine for 2 months... Bananas release Ethylene gas that encourages them to ripen quicker!

@slowgynman1234. 9 лет назад

I'm with you there ,,,& I think it helps to use a cardboard SCOTCH case too , instead on a toilet paper carton

@JacobFare 9 лет назад

That's it all does good. :) #Tomatopepperexpert

@davidthibodeau5775 11 месяцев назад

Doesn't matter what you do are don't do they will all turn read its not rocket science

@RaulHAV 3 года назад

Uuuuhhhh green salsa is NOT made with unripped tomates, its made from actual green tomates, called tomatillos.

@JOxpkral 12 лет назад

The fact that you really pronounces the "h" in the word "white" really bugs me :-|..."when they're Hwite like this..." Disturbing as hell! But anyway, thanks for the advice. Cheers!

@09anutka 10 лет назад

God sais do not eat fruit until it ripe , ....

@jameszooski9053 Год назад

Last site said the apple and bag trick did not work as well as setting them in the sun by a window ?
