Tomatoes - Ideas Please
35 Answers
I am sick of tomatoes. We have had an amazingly good crop this year and I am running out of ideas for them. The last 3 weekends have been spent making soup, passata, bolognaise and ratatouille (we also have a glut of aubergines and courgettes). So now I have a freezer full of nice home made food.
Mr BM picked 11lbs on Weds and it looks like there will be a similar amount ready over the next couple of days.
I've got plum, beefsteak and ordinary eaters (alicante, shirley etc). Any ideas for the next cook off, please? I think I shall make some relish, but apart from that, I am out of ideas.

Thanks RH. The plum tomatoes might work well for the oven dried thing and ketchup is a good idea. I've also got about 8 cucumbers which I may pickle.

I've frozen a lot of courgettes since Mr BM likes them fried. The trouble with courgettes is you look at one and think "yes, that'll be fine, I'll cut that tomorrow" and by tomorrow it is a monster.
We've also got chillies, peppers, cucamelons, sweetcorn, spuds, onions, garlic, ginger, and butternut squash, but they are in more manageable quantities.

If you have too many courgettes, this bread recipe is good, really nice toasted...I've got a few others if you are interested.

It has to be tomato and courgette chutney Barmaid. Swap a few toms with someone who has a glut of apples, and you'll be spooning it out of the jars its so delicious. Small jars of homemade chutney also make ideal Christmas gifts for friends and neighbours, if I'm allowed to mention that particular time of year!
