Nice. Beats waking up in the morning to find them frozen! Btw, if yout want to use some now, the super-green ones work well for salsa verde. I made some yesterday, substituing hard, green tomatoes for tomatillos. Wasn't sure that it would taste good, but it's quite delicious. Lots of hot peppers added, of course!
good move, i lost a lot of tomatoes cause i thought i could buy 1 more day....less than 32F.
Beautiful tomatoes! Just watch the ones with cracks more carefully. Maybe take Shortcut's advice on using these particular ones for salsa verde. Sounds like a great recipe. Thanks, Shortcut.
Will definitely make some verde may add to my next green ferment thanks again really happy to have them in knowing one way or another they will get eaten 
Just so close to perfection. All ready Jared quite a few. Great idea for verde Shortcut ill post some pics! And thanks again Catherine's your first post pushed me to bring them in. And big thanks to all my fellow chili head's!

OldSalty - did your tomatoes ripen up nicely? Unfortunately the green to red ones don't taste as great as the ones that ripen on the vine. But it beats having them freeze.
Plus fried green tomatoes ARE delicious.

Hi catherinew they have been ripening more and more every day. Though not as sweet as the tomatoes that ripened on the vine, still better than store boughtcatherinew said:
Again I can't thank you enough for your tomato saving advice!! The smaller green ones I used in a ferment for a salsa verde will post some pics!! And had some fried green tomatoes last night with dinner, fantastic with some of my homemade hot sauce
Unfortunately my friends who live at the end of my street didn't take the advice I passed on from my friends at THP! And lost there whole crop
thought they could use the blanket and spotlight trick we had record cold that night. Didn't work! But I gave them a basket full to help ease the pain And a free bottle of hot sauce didn't hurt lolDo you make sauces and or ferments? Again I'd like to thank all the THP members who helped me out y'all SAVED MY TOMATOES Yyyeeeeeehhhhhhaaaaaaaa!!
CHEERS
Yum! I'm so glad you decided to 'save' the greenies and not just dover them. Mother Nature can be brutal and very surprising.
Good job!
Good job!
