Line an airtight container with paper towels and place your tomatoes inside, making sure they are dry and spaced out to avoid touching. The paper towels will absorb excess moisture, helping to prevent mold growth.
4. Freeze Tomatoes for Longer Storage
Wash and dry your tomatoes, then place them in freezer bags. Seal the bags tightly, removing as much air as possible before placing them in the freezer. This method works best for tomatoes you’ll use in cooked dishes later.
5. Dry Tomatoes for Storage
Another excellent way to store tomatoes for an extended period is by drying them. Slice the tomatoes, season them lightly, and use a food dehydrator or oven on a low setting until they are fully dried. Store the dried tomatoes in airtight containers or vacuum-sealed bags.
6. Store Tomatoes with Basil
Basil emits natural compounds that can slow down the ripening process. Store ripe tomatoes alongside fresh basil leaves in an airy, cool space to make them last longer.
