I’ve been out there watering things most nights and looking at all these green tomatoes……lots of tomatoes, but all green so far.
Then tonight near the bottom of one plant I saw red that I swear wasn’t there yesterday. My first nice handful of cherry tomatoes! Now, if all those Roma plums would start ripening, I could start dehydrating some soup ingredients for winter. Soon………..
Pasta tomorrow night for supper.
looks enough for a nice salad! very nice
Thanks! I love them every way cooked, but don’t like them raw. I know, I’m strange. They will get split in half and cooked with some other good things like herbs and put over some pasta, whole wheat, of course.
I’ll eat the cherry tomatoes raw, but prefer any other cooked or in salsa… roma is my favorite for sauces
You mentioned salsa before, and that is good stuff!
Tomato soup with meatballs for me , please…
Oh yea, that sounds good. Never had that combination.
Please do try it… It’s a local tradition over here!
So you fry up the meatballs and put them in the soup after………are there herbs and other things involved? Do you have a recipe hanging around anywhere? Thanks. I like to try different things.
Here’s a clip from Jeroen Meus, a famous local cook, (dutch spoken, sorry) how I like it. Maybe it will give you an idea of what I mean:

Thank you so much! I’ll check it out. And Google translates anything written pretty well, so language isn’t an issue.
Oh yea and the video helps, seeing him even if I can’t understand. The recipe translated well.
I read that tomatoes are actually better for you cooked as the heat releases the lycopene… so you are not so strange!
I never knew that, thanks!
All those green tomatoes…yes, every day I look and think please get red! Yay for ripe ones. Enjoy!
Soon………one of each plant is getting red now. Maybe yours are too, I hope!
