A couple of months ago I was inundated with tomatoes (not that I'm complaining). Today I decided to record for posterity the absolute last of my tomato crop - a very small bowlful of tiny fruits that represent all that remains of the great mass that I brought into the house in early October. This just goes to show that tomato fruits will eventually ripen, no matter how immature they may seem when harvested - you just have to be patient.

Not many; not good specimens, but I'm proud of them! |
At lunchtime today we used some of the tomato sauce that we made when the tomato crop was at its height, adding it to some shop-bought tortellini. I have to say that the tortellini were "OK", but the sauce was brilliant - but then I am a bit biased...
Here's a link to a blog you ought to visit if you haven't already done so - and it has a very useful Conversion Table in its Sidebar too, helping US readers and UK readers to understand each others' recipes!http://allotment2kitchen.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteIf you are an Australian, as old as me, you don't need conversion tables. :-) We changed to metric in the 1960s and I still remember imperial. I used to teach the kids at school how to add and subtract with Lsd. They were amazed!
