Are you overrun with cherry tomatoes and wondering if you can freeze cherry tomatoes whole? Well yes you can!
We will go over how and why freezing whole cherry tomatoes is a great idea.
Sometimes it is hard to keep up, especially when you have a lot of fresh tomatoes coming in. The fresh flavor of just picked ripe tomatoes is the best, but freezing tomatoes is the easiest way to deal with them quickly with minimal effort.
Next while they are drying, I get out my ziplock baggies and label them with the year.
Once the cherry tomatoes are clean and dry, I place them in freezer-safe bags or freezer-safe containers and put them in the freezer.
After I fill each bag, I weigh them and add that weight to the label on each bag. This lot yielded over 11 pounds of soon to be frozen cherry tomatoes!
Freezing Roasted Tomatoes
You can also choose to roast them in the oven until they begin to slightly brown. Remove from the oven and let cool before freezing them.
