A letter came in a few days ago which I deleted by accident concerning
black spots ionside frozen tomatoes.  I may be losing my mind in
cyberspace in remembering this post but I wish to comment.

My wife as an experienced cook informs me that freezing tomatoes will
result in tasteless mush on thawing.  Dehydrating slices may be the way
to go.

As for the black insides noticed and removed, sounds like a fungus.  I
may have had similar substances inside some growing tomatoes at the end
of last season.  Would flash freezing to destroy biogical activity be the
answer?

Sorry to get off topic of gardening but many years my SQFT garden yields
abundant tomatoes and I would welcome methods of preservation.

Is there anybody out there who noticed this post and wishes to comment?
