Title: Freeze harvest
Post by: Gypsi on November 14, 2014, 12:52:10 am

I have a policy: pick it before it freezes. Counter is full. Sweet potatoes are still in the ground, but they are planted on the south side of a privacy fence and I watered just before the freeze.

I see red tomatoes for the next month a few at a time. I have to learn to cook eggplant before I learn to fry green tomatoes.

Jen

stick around we will show you how to ripen those green tomatoes. :laugh: My wife got the table covered with them. Most of them will ripen in two weeks. Fried green tomatoes. I would need a roll of toilet paper after eating them. ;D

Nope, I am stewing red tomatoes.  I have heard I'd need some kind of anti-diarrhea for cooked green tomatoes aftermath

I love fried green tomatoes, and they do not upset my stomach.  Then again, if I knew how to pickle green tomatoes that stash of them would tempt me.  Pickled green tomatoes are wonderful.

Egg plant is something I can take or leave.  The melon looks inviting.
