Ypu can try to pick your green tomatoes, wrap them in clingfilm and leave them inside on the window sill for a few days. This will ripen them more.

Wonderful recipe.
Also : if you just put your green tomatoes between a few layers of old newspapers, they will rippen in the dark! :-) Every year, we buy a case of green tomatoes just before the market shuts down and we have ripe market fresh tomatoes for weeks.

Thanks for the compliment, Thomas. The website is way behind the actual remodel — in fact I moved into the house last month and now I’m into finishing details. It’s hard to find time these days!

@Gina: Your site looks very interesting, by the way! I’m going to have a thorough read there later – right now I have a programming deadline hanging over my head :-/

I discovered sliced green tomatoes with a squeeze of lemon in Cuba and have included them in my menu ever since. Worth a try!
