Can you give us the recipe?

It looks like we’re going to have a lot of green tomatoes this year. They are not ripening as they should.

Darn global warming!

Chef John's recipe for fried green 'maters is:

Prepare the dredge with corn-meal, salt, pepper, and cayenne to taste. Slice tomatoes 3/16" thick and dredge immediately. Allow to rest 3-5 minutes and re-dredge. Fry in enough oil to cover at 325F until golden brown. Remove, drain well, and salt immediately. Serve hot.

This recipe is NOT heart-healthy, but with Obamacare on the way, who cares, we're all gonna die sooner anyway, may as well enjoy it.

Green tomatoes can be force ripened by picking and placing in a PAPER bag with a ripe apple. The apple gives off a gas that will ripen many different type of fruits and veggies. I use it on under-ripe avocados often.

These fried green tomatoes are made with eggs and cornmeal or bread crumbs.
Ingredients:

• 4 to 6 green tomatoes, sliced 1/4-inch thick
• salt and pepper • flour for dusting
• 2 eggs, beaten
• cornmeal or bread crumbs
• bacon grease or vegetable oil

Preparation:
Salt and pepper the tomato slices; dust lightly with flour. Dip slices in beaten egg, letting excess drip off, then coat well with meal or crumbs. Fry in hot grease or oil until browned, turning gently (about 3 minutes each side). Keep warm in a low 200° to 250° oven if frying in batches.

You can’t go wrong with the quick Southern recipe:

Slice (thick as you want), soak in salted cold water.

Drain. Toss with cornmeal with Pepper.

Fry. That’s it! Salt after frying if you want more salt.
