Preserving Cherry Tomatoes

Growing your own food sometimes sees a bountiful harvest of one crop. A lot of precision in timing is required for successive planting. A skill I am still working on. Another way around it is to learn preservation, so as to have access to a veggie when you don't have a harvest.

Here are two ways of preserving cherry tomatoes.

1. Freezing

• Place the tomatoes on a plate and freeze them.
• Once they have frozen, they will be like marbles.
• Bag them in zip lock for future use.

2. Sun Dry

• Bruise the tomatoes, add Himalayan salt, garlic powder, olive oil and mix well.
• Leve them to sun dry till brittle.
• Preserve in a glass bottle.

Farfalle or bow-tie pasta is my kids favourite shaped pasta. I prepared pasta today after a long time, needless to say that it was attacked when I had barely finished clicking the pictures. I was meaning to click some more pictures with shredded cheese on the top, however it was too late. Joel was back from school and he could wait no longer!
