Can’t open this site.
will certainly try this
Works well with cut bell peppers and onion too !!!
Good to know.
I use them in stews or beans. My mom would freeze them (we raised lots of tomatoes) in bags and use for stew in the winter.
I sprinkle with salt and pepper, a tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese; bake in a 350 oven for 20 minutes. Oh yes, delicious.
Who has left over halved tomatoes? I mean really.
After looking at second page and still no answer, I left site as it was too time consuming
It said to place tomato half cut side down on a paper towel in a closed container.
“The best way to store your remaining tomato halves is cut-side down on a paper towel. Stick paper towel in the bottom of a storage container, place open face of tomato on paper towel, stick closed container in fridge. If you use it within two days, it will taste good as new. If you can’t use it over the next couple days, stick it in the freezer until you need it.”
Thank you. I got tired of trying to open the info.
exactly
Why can’t the answer just be on the first page. I don’t bother anymore.
Thank you, lol mine last just as long with plastic wrap or baggies
I have been doing this like forever. I use a napkin or paper towel. It keeps much better and longer.
Yes

After clicking too many times this is the answer
No left over tomato at my house. I would salt it and eat it right then.
this site is crazy 5 clicks to see how
NEVER put a tomato in the fridge!!!!!!
Once chilled, favor enzymes “turn off” and you lose the fresh tomato taste. This is why store bought tomatoes never taste as good as garden/market ones, because they were shipped refrigerated.
These posts kill me, just get to the point!!!
What leftover? I just had bacon/tomatoe sandwich for lunch. CRAVED THEMA LL SUMMER AND CAN’T GET ENOUGH! Hate when the season is over!
I have cored tomatoes and frozen them whole to use in soups at a later time. Just run warm water over the frozen tomato and peel the skins off add the tomato into the soup.
Very interesting. They spoil so quickly though.
if you store the cut tomato on a paper towel won`t the juices of the tomato be drawn out of the tomato and into the paper towel?
Too much click bait
We NEVER put our tomatoes in the fridge, cut up or not! But then again, I grew up with Jersey tomatoes, & they got devoured pretty quick! Putting them in the fridge ruins the flavor.
You can do the same thing with a plastic baggie, too !
f**k you Recipe Station and your$#%&!@*click bait!!! Fuckers
That is nice to know!
I canned 21 qt today, they keep for a year or so
Why can’t you just tell…. Instead you keep putting it off. I don’t want to know!!!!
