How Do I Store Green Tomatoes?

Question

We had our first freeze last night and I have already picked all fruit from the tomato plants. How do I store the green ones and keep them from turning red. Thank you so much Kristal Reed

Answer 1

Ripening can be delayed by chilling the tomatoes. Keeping them in the crisper of your refrigerator can delay ripening for quite some time.
