How To Store Tomatoes

How to store Fresh Tomatoes. 

First let me say, NEVER store your Tomatoes in the refrigerator. Doing so will cause the Tomatoes to lose their flavor and turn the Tomatoes into mush.

The best way to store Tomatoes is on the kitchen counter away from sunlight.

We all have the inclination to set the Tomatoes down with the stem on the bottom. Why? So they don’t roll away, however, you should always store Tomatoes with the stem side up to reduce softening and darkening of the fruit.

Yes, Tomatoes are a fruit!
