Preserving tomatoes

 This morning I have turned a huge pile of tomatoes into fermented ones.  They obviously won't be ready for a week or two but I really needed to get on a deal with the tomato mountain as so many of them were going rotten and I hate to see food wasted.  Then I set to and prepped some to dry in the oven and that's where they are now.  I left the yellow ones whole but halved the red ones. As soon as they are properly dried I shall pack them into jars and cover them with olive oil. They will be a welcome addition to the pantry.
