Uses

There is a big difference between tomatoes bred to be fully ripe when still green and fruit that never turned red at the end of the season. True green tomatoes come from heirloom stocks that offer a pleasantly tart tomato taste. This particular variety sweetens with cooking and should not be eaten raw. However, fried in the traditional southern style, green tomatoes attain a perfect balance of tart-sweet that make them one of the summer’s best fresh delicacies.

Selection, Storage and Handling

Avoid the small fruit that may have a bitter taste. Look for green tomatoes that are the size of an average ripened tomato weighing 5 to 6 ounces or more. Choose firm, bright green fruit.
