  • 1
    Using a box big enough to hold all the unripe tomatoes in a single layer, place tissue paper on the bottom of the box (paper has to be bigger than the size of the box). Transfer the unripe tomatoes on the tissue paper. Fold paper over and close the box. Place the box in a warm place away from any draft.

    A few days later, remove the ripe tomatoes, leaving the other unripe ones in the box for a few days longer until they ripen, folding paper over and closing box. Repeat the process until all the tomatoes are ripe.
