Title: Blighted tomatoes and chutney - question
Post by: Squash64 on August 22, 2009, 14:29:22

A friend has asked me for some green tomatoes so she can make chutney.
I have loads but they are all on plants which have got blight.
If I pick the green ones now, will they be alright to use?

I hope so I have used some a neibour gave me. Made sure they looked O.K. and threw out any with brown in.

They're OK to use, just make sure they're used quick!

Can they be chopped and frozen ready to use later in chutney?

I have frozen ripe tomatoes and used later in spag. bol.. Also in chutney. So I think green ones would be o.k.
