What to do with ripe tomatoes?

(1/3) > >>

Eric Hardy:
This year we are overwhelmed with a bumper crop of ripe tomatoes, both in the greenhouse and outdoors. For once there hasn't been a sign of blight.  We have just grown Marmande and a very sweet little cherry tomato. We are supplying all our friends and neighbours and using as many as we can ourselves but still they keep coming. Any ideas what to do with them rather than waste them please?

You must be doing something right to have such a prolific crop of tomatoes Eric  8)

Great in one respect, but having too many for your own needs is a problem.

We don't grow tomatoes, so can't really offer any advice for the use of your surplus stock.  We'll step aside for more knowledgeable suggestions from our other members  ;)
