Answer 5

Use fully ripe tomatoes quickly. Tomatoes ripen at room temperature, not in the refrigerator. To hasten ripening, put them in a paper bag with a banana or an apple; the fruit gives off ethylene gas, which speeds ripening. If you must refrigerate tomatoes, bring them back to room temperature before eating, to restore flavor. It makes sense to add tomato to sandwiches made with nitrite-cured meats, such as hot dogs, ham, bacon and cold cuts. Tomatoes' vitamin C, as well as chlorogenic acid and p-coumaric acid, may block the formation of carcinogens from the nitrite, according to Cornell University tests.

Answer 6

Put them in a paper bag in a dark warm place and let them sit for a day or two. Check them. This is the fastest way we've found to ripen tomatoes.

Answer 7

I saw somewhere last year, on a morning news show, a tip for helping tomatoes to ripen faster on the vine... by placing an overripe banana on the ground near them.

I thought at first, no way!... but I tested it.... I put overripe bananas on two of 5 tomato plants... and they did ripen faster... couldnt tell any difference in the taste either.

(Serves as a use for overripe bananas too!)

Enjoy your tomatoes!

I had 3 acres of tomatoes, and the quickest way to ripen that I found is to put them in a window sill (in the sun). This assumes you cannot wait to pick them ripe, or that you are getting unripe tomatoes from somewhere.
