Recipes to Make the Most of Green Tomatoes

Elspeth Hay

It's only a matter of time before the first frost arrives. But in many local gardens, there are still plenty of green tomatoes on the vine. This week on Local Food Report, Elspeth Hay talks with local cooks and gardeners about how to make the most of this late season harvest.

You can find links and recipes for the green tomato recipes mentioned in this piece on Elspeth's blog, Diary of a Locavore
