Rieux Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I've been in bed since Friday am with a stomach flu, fever, so that's the limitant. I can't really eat most of the things I noramally would. At the same time, my inlaws gave us 20 perfectly ripe organic tomatoes last weekend and they will go bad if I don't do somethng soon (they are in the fridge). I could can them, but is there something else anyone can suggest I could do to make an easy on the stomach soup or something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Deb Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 You could slow cook them for later. Here is Joe Yonan's recipe. http://www.washingtonpost.com/pb/recipes/12-hour-tomatoes/9460/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squidsdc Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I think tomatoes are too acidic to be easy on the stomach, even in a soup. You can roast and freeze them, and also make a vinegr/oil/herb salad that will taste better in a few days when hopefully you'll be feeling better! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rieux Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 I ended up mustering enough energy to can them in two quarts. It was a nice way to get out of bed for a few hours! Thanks for the suggestions. I want to try that slow cook recipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
