will be unsavory. The traditional advice finally confirmed by scientific findings. As they point out experts from both sides of the Atlantic, the cold environment of the refrigerator makes tomatoes unsavory and less juicy.
The tomatoes have been born in the hot deserts of the western coast of South America, and so I don’t have the proper “supplies” in order to adapt to the arctic temperatures of the refrigerator, pointed out Harold mcgee, an analyst at the “science in the kitchen”, “New York Times” and author of related books, speaking of the website business news Quartz. “The aromatic, earthy flavor of the tomato is the result of a reaction of enzymes which produces sulphurous aromatic compounds” he explained. “The cold climate of the refrigerator blocks the action of these enzymes with the result that the tomatoes gradually to lose their flavor”.
Depending on the conclusions of the Catherine Renard of the National Institute for Agricultural Research of France, which presented a summary of the findings of the studies of speaking in the web site Business Insider. “The average temperature of a household refrigerator is about 4.4 degrees Celsius, but our studies have shown that tomatoes don’t cope well in temperatures below 10 degrees Celsius” stressed the researcher. As mentioned, a cold environment does not cause changes in content of tomato in sugar or acidity, but makes the flesh of granular and less juicy.
The fanatics of the “certainty” offered by the maintenance of the vegetables in the refrigerator may argue that the same sulphur aromas that make tomatoes delicious they also can spoil and rot, and that if you get it out of the fridge a few days before we consume the process of “νοστιμίσματος is turned on again, offering a satisfying flavor. Mrs. Renard, however, advises to prefer for keeping a cool and bright spot on the kitchen counter, where it can be kept for about a week.
