I have been experimenting in the kitchen with the fresh veggies I got from the Forsyth Farmer’s Market. Last week I saw the green tomatoes, but I had no idea what to do with them. Earlier this week, Indrani Sen asked on Facebook about recipes for green tomatoes. Indrani who is a journalist, got a quote from me seven years ago when she wrote about the Unfancy Food Fest. It was one of the first New York Times articles about the Brooklyn foodie artisan movement. Anyway, her query led me down a rabbit hole of green tomato recipes. There’s green tomato salsa, remoulade, etc. I ended up using a Green Tomato Relish recipe from Food.com
Ingredients:
- 3 chopped green tomatoes
- 1 red onion, chopped
- 1 red pepper chopped
- 1/2 tablespoon salt
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 pinch of dill weed
- 1 pinch of curry seasoning
- 1 pinch of garlic pepper
- 1/2 tablespoon of coconut vinegar (from La Terra Natural Oils)
Directions:
- Put everything in a pot and let simmer for 30 minutes.
- Let cool and then put in a mason jar.
It’s great with breakfast, lunch and dinner.
