Question by FLhazel79: I need to substitute grape tomatoes for standard tomatoes in a recipe?
My recipe calls for 4 medium tomatoes coarsely chopped. How many cups of grape tomatoes would that be? Thanks!

Answer by Jedi Jan
Although I have not heard of “grape” tomatoes before I guess they are the same as our “cherry” tomatoes. I would hazard a guess at about 3-4 cups, but they would not include as much fluid as regular ones, although you could add a paste also. It would seem a bit wasteful though as the special varieties are usually more expensive. I just bought a kilo of regular (small) tomatoes which cost me $ 5.45 (AU), about 60c each. You could always purchase a bottle of pre-chopped tomatoes; for cooking they are just fine.

Not sure what happened. We were there and others were leaving comments live
and we were answering them. I do have a G+ for J&J and did post an event
there 😀 – Go to the channel home page and click the G+ link up on the
channel art. I will also add a link in to the description in a moment.
The recipes are posted on our Homestead Help Facebook page
BTW … that picture of that sick tomato plant i posted … that particular
tomato, all the leaves fell off but it’s growing new ones that look healthy
so far.
You are welcome!
Thank you for watching!
<--- Was Here
haha glad i took a break from mucking out the chicken coop!
Jared is stylin with them sunglasses on
Jared – I’ve noticed that I have better luck with starting heirloom seeds
for tomatoes in trays first, potting up once and when they get about 6″
plant them in the ground. Just my personal experience
Ok no spaces…just add the worldwide web dot
nice chat!
Jared I waited for this to start but nobody showed up. Why don’t you setup
a Google+ page for JandJAcres so you can post events that people can get
reminders of. I mostly avoid Facebook.
Thank you for being a part of the discussion!
can you clone one or the other type better for multiple plants?
Thanks for being there!
I was in full shade it it still looked like my forehead could blind an
army. Left my hat at a meeting last night… bummer…
Thanks for all the information. Appreciate your knowledge.
I know the rule of thumb is to start them indoors. I am just looking for
the easiest way to do things with the least amount of interaction on my
part. If I can, I hope to plant them once, not twice.
Tomato Pie!
I’m sorry–I don’t think I have that FB page.
Thank you for the link. Greatly appreciated.
when do you start a fall planting for zone 9b?
Oh .. please post that recipe on FB
thanks, enjoyed the chat!
3-4 cups and your going to have alot of tomato skin and little flesh. Consider boiling them for 20 seconds the skins will easily peel.
