If a tomato falls off before they are ripe, place them in a paper bag with the stalk up and store them in a cool, gloomy spot. Never place tomatoes on a sunny windowsill to ripen; they may rot before they are ripe!The perfect tomato for picking will be solid and very cherry in gloss, regardless of size, with maybe some yellow remaining around the shank. A ripe tomato will be only slightly soft.Never refrigerate fresh tomatoes. Doing so spoils the texture that makes up that garden tomato taste.To freeze, core fresh, unblemished tomatoes and put the entire produce in freezer bags or containers. Seal tightly, label, and freeze. The peels will slide away when they defrost.You can harvest seeds from some tomato varieties.
