Tomatoes

12 tomatoes or 3 oz

This isn't a scientific answer. But we guessed 2 tomatoes per cup. 1 cup = 8 ounces.

So - drum roll please - you would need 16 tomatoes for 32 ounces.

An interesting article I ran across is below. I have known that at the point of freezing, water gives off heat. Here is the article : By Livai Matarirano, Zimbabawe You can grow tomatoes even in cold weather. A farmer in Zimbabwe, Mr. Francis Handwa, uses cooking oil or milk bottles filled with water to keep tomato plants warm. This is a good alternative to covering tomatoes if used bottles are easy to get. Here is how he does it. Francis fills cooking oil or milk bottles with water until they are three quarters full. While the plants are still young, he places the bottles upright on the ground among the tomatoes. He places one bottle beside every third plant in every other row. He makes sure that the neck of the bottle appears above the plants. When the plants get taller than the bottles he places stakes beside the tomato plants. He hangs a bottle on each stake with a string. The bottles hang 10 centimetres above the plants. When the temperature drops below freezing the water in the bottles freezes. The tomatoes stay frost free even though the surrounding grass and shrubs are covered with frost. Mr. P.R. Makaya, an expert on fruit and vegetable production in Zimbabwe, explains why the water in the bottles freezes while the tomatoes are not attacked by frost: "When water has things dissolved in it, it freezes at a lower temperature than when it is pure. The water in plant cells, tomato cells in this case, contains dissolved salts. But the water in the bottles is pure, or at least has much less dissolved matter. In frost conditions, pure water freezes earlier than water in plant cells. So in the morning you find the water in the bottles is frozen. When water freezes it releases a lot of heat. The heat released when the water in the bottles freezes keeps the air around the tomatoes warmer than the surrounding area".

"Puree" is not a type of soup. It is a method of thickening up the soup before serving it.

After your soup is made, you can either run it through a sieve or strainer OR you can put it in a food processor. Putting it in any of these mechanical devices will smash-up the vegetables into tiny bits and cause the entire soup to have a thicker consistency.

For more info, you can type "puree a soup" into a browser and check the internet.

The Campbell Soup Company was founded in 1869 by Joseph A. Campbell and Abraham Anderson. When it was founded, the Campbell Soup Company sold not only soup but canned fruits, vegetables, jelly, condiments, and minced meat.

Cherry tomatoes should be planted 5 feet apart as they are profuse growers.

Tomatoes can be grown in any US state, though I'm not sure how well they'd do in Alaska or Hawaii.

However, if you know a tomato or tomato product was grown in the US, the odds are that it's from California (California utterly dominates the processed-tomato market, with about a 96% share; Florida and California together account for 2/3 to 3/4 of the fresh tomato market, split roughly evenly between the two, with Florida usually having a slight edge).

Cans come in different sizes. But typically, it would be about a dozen.

One cup of diced tomatoes would weigh approximately 6.5 ounces. It may be a little more or a little less, but it should be close to 6.5 ounces.

Take the husks off, and rinse the sticky substance from the tomatillo. Steam them either whole or in pieces in a small amount of water for about 5-8 minutes or until soft and mushy, much like a sauce. You can then add this to any dishes, particularly Mexican ones, or just add chili, pepper, salt or any other seasonings.

The Europeans thought that tomatoes were poisonous because when they put the tomatoes onto their pewter plates, the acid from the tomato leeched out the lead which is toxic when ingested. The tomato is a member of the Nightshade family which is toxic. The leaves, made into a tea has been known to have caused one death because of the toxic alkaloid tomantine. Tomantine is not found in the ripe fruit. Dogs have been known to have died after eating the tomato plant and the tomato was thought to be poisonous as well.

Yes, tomatoes are high in potassium. It balances the lack of potassium in pasta.

Tomatoes originally come from a seed knows as the plasma osmatoes. The origin of the seeds are unknown but originally, the first tomatoes were extremely toxic. To overcome the toxicity the seedlings must be watered by the semen of 200 black men.

You better ketchup

Yes. Snails eat any fruit or vegetables that are NOT acidic.

Luckily you can eat all the asparagus you want, because asparagus counts as ZERO Weight Watcher's Points. Of course, that doesn't mean that cheese and sauces will count as zero as well. . . no.

If you pick off the flowers, you will not get any tomatoes. The fruit form as the flowers die away. However to give the plant a better chance of producing the best fruit, leave five trusses of flowers and pick off the rest

it depends how heavy the bowl is and how big the tomato is if the tomato is 500g and the bowl is 600g it would be 1.1k your answer just came by a kid

No ! Tomatoes are on the best foods to have when suffering from gout. It has high level of potassium which enhances the secretion of uric acid from the body. Bananas is another good source of potassium.

In my area of the Southern United States, it's simple.

-Slice up a Green Tomato.
-Then batter it with Cornmeal or Flour until it's completely covered.
-Fry in skillet/ pan with your choice of grease/ oil. This can be leftover bacon grease, olive oil, butter, lard, etc. You get the point. Not too deep. Just enough to cover half of the tomato.
-Fry on both sides until golden brown, salt/ pepper to taste.
-Enjoy

Evidence supports the theory the first domesticated tomato was a little yellow fruit, ancestor of L. cerasiforme, grown by the Aztecs of Central America who called it 'xitomatl' (pronounced zee-toe-má-tel), meaning plump thing with a navel, and later called tomati by other Central American tribes. Aztec writings mention tomatoes were prepared with peppers and salt, likely to be the original salsa recipe. The tomato's actual origin is thought to be Peru in South America where it grew wild (like a weed) several thousands of years before making its way north to Central America.

This depends on the type of tomato plant. There are two main types: determinate and indeterminate. Determinate tomatoes branch and grow in a pre-determined pattern and for the most part they maintain their bush-like shape. After fruiting they are generally done for the season. Indeterminate tomato plants continue to grow as long as the weather remains suitable, and can sprawl all over the place. For this reason they are usually supported by stakes or a trellis. They branch out all over the place and need more pruning. All tomato plants get suckers, which grow from the joint between a leaf and stem. Suckers below the first blossoms should always be removed, no matter if your plant is determinate or indeterminate. On determinate tomatoes, you may not have to trim above the first blossom. Typically these plants take care of their own branching. However, if too many branches appear you might want to thin a few out. A tomato plant with 3 or 4 branches will generally produce the best yields and best tomatoes. The more branches the smaller the tomatoes. Also, the new branches use up energy which should go into the ripening tomatoes. Indeterminate tomatoes require constant pruning, because they will try to send out many new branches. Again, you want to limit the number of branches to 3 or 4.
