What is Green Tomato Extract?

Green tomato powder is made from dried green tomato. You can use it as a garnish, or as an ingredient. It is a nice souring agent in dry rubs.

Tomatoes that are green when ripe (real green tomato extract) often have vertical stripes or other variations in the coloring, will feel soft when pressed, and will taste much like a red tomato, possibly slightly sweet or spicy depending on the variety. Unripe (red) tomatoes will be pale green all over, feel nearly solid and will have a more acidic or tart flavor.

Nearly ripe green tomatoes (ones that feel soft) may be ripened in a paper bag on the counter top. Both can be used in several different recipes…no not just the fried green tomatoes! Fried green tomatoes really are a part of Southern food culture, they are often served in southern restaurants as a side or a topping for sandwiches and burgers. They are quite tasty!

Ripe green tomato extract are a very good source of vitamins A and C and potassium. They also contain iron, calcium, dietary fiber, magnesium, and other minerals. Unripe (traditional red) tomatoes will not be as good a source for nutrients dense since they are not fully ripe. For those with sensitivities to acidic foods, green tomatoes (unripe) can be more acidic than ripe tomatoes. Both can be eaten and both are delicious!
