KAREN'S FRIED GREEN TOMATOES
This recipe comes from my mom and they are, hands down, the best fried green tomatoes. She makes these every summer with fresh tomatoes from her garden. My sister begs her to make them for her as soon as she sees tomatoes growing big and green on the vines. While most recipes call for breadcrumbs and oil, this one calls for flour and has you fry the tomatoes in butter, which helps give these an incredible flavor.

Steps:

BEST FRIED GREEN TOMATOES
You can also fry up red tomatoes with this recipe but make sure they are not over ripe or they will be mushy. Serve these tomatoes outside with a glass of iced tea one summer night and enjoy the sunset with someone you love.

Steps:
- Slice tomatoes 1/2 inch thick. Discard the ends.

Place tomatoes into the frying pan in batches of 4 or 5, depending on the size of your skillet. Do not crowd the tomatoes, they should not touch each other. When the tomatoes are browned, flip and fry them on the other side. Drain them on paper towels.

Steps:
- For the fried green tomatoes: Pour the vegetable oil into a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot and attach a deep-frying thermometer. Heat the oil over medium heat to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with paper towels and top with a cooling rack.
- Set up 3 low-sided dishes to make a breading station: To the first dish, add the flour, salt and black pepper and stir to combine. In the second dish, beat the buttermilk with the eggs. In the third dish, stir together the cornmeal and panko.
- Using one hand, dredge both sides of the tomato slices in the seasoned flour, shaking each piece to remove any excess. Next, using the other hand, dip the tomato slices into the egg mixture, allowing it to drip before moving onto the third dish. Using your first hand, coat the tomato slices in the breadcrumb mixture evenly on both sides.
- Working in batches, carefully place the breaded tomatoes into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 30 seconds per side. Transfer to the cooling rack and sprinkle each slice generously with more salt.
- For the dipping sauce: Put the mayonnaise in a bowl, add the hot peppers and pepper juice, paprika, sugar and salt and stir to combine. Serve the fried tomatoes immediately with the dipping sauce on the side.
FRIED GREEN TOMATOES WITH COMEBACK SAUCE
Green tomatoes come in season once a year and there are so many great things about them. They're firm, crispy and perfect when soaked in brine. They have great flavor and when you fry them, you end up with this crispy, fresh, slightly oily flavor that is amazing with the famous comeback sauce.

Steps:
- For the comeback sauce: Stir together the mayonnaise, ketchup, lemon juice, mustard, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 2 days.
- For the fried green tomatoes: Whisk together the buttermilk, hot sauce, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a medium shallow bowl. Gently add the tomato slices, cover and refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours.
- Bring the tomatoes to room temperature. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, add 1/4 inch of oil and heat until shimmering. Line a cooling rack with paper towels.
- Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, garlic, paprika, parsley, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a shallow bowl.
- Shake any extra moisture from the tomatoes, then place in the cornmeal mixture one at a time, gently pressing and flipping once to coat all surfaces. Transfer to a large plate or platter.
- Fry the tomatoes in batches until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
- Transfer to the prepared cooling rack and sprinkle with salt. Serve immediately with the comeback sauce on the side.
CRAB CAKE AND FRIED GREEN TOMATO SLIDERS
Two summer favorites join forces in these superlative sliders: crab cakes and fried green tomatoes. While the crab cakes cook in the oven, green tomatoes are breaded and fried. A creamy homemade remoulade spread pulls together these crispy, juicy bites.

Steps:
- For the crab cakes: Gently fold together the crabmeat, panko, mayonnaise, chives, Dijon, seafood seasoning, lemon zest and juice, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper in a large bowl. Refrigerate the crab mixture for 30 minutes to firm up; this allows the panko to absorb some of the liquid, helping the crab cakes bind together.
- For the remoulade: Meanwhile, combine the mayonnaise, parsley, Dijon, capers, hot sauce, Worcestershire, paprika, cayenne, garlic, lemon juice and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl and mix until combined. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- For the crab cakes: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking sheet with butter.
- Scoop 1/3-cup mounds of the crab mixture, pat into 1-inch-thick patties and place on the prepared baking sheet. You should have 9 patties. Bake until golden around the edges and heated through, about 205 minutes.
- For the fried green tomatoes: Meanwhile, heat 1/2 inch of oil in a large Dutch oven or skillet over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Line a plate with paper towels or set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet.
- Whisk together the flour, cayenne, garlic powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a shallow dish. Whisk the eggs in another shallow dish. Put the panko in a third shallow dish. Dip each tomato slice in the flour, then egg, then panko.
- Fry the green tomatoes, flipping, until golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to the prepared plate or rack.
- For serving: Split the slider buns. Put a fried green tomato on each bottom bun. Spoon some remoulade over each, add a crab cake and top with pickled red onions and Bibb lettuce. Close the sliders with the top buns.
FRIED GREEN TOMATOES
"EACH TIME I fix these tomatoes, it takes me back to the Ohio farm where I grew up. I savor the taste of this delicately sauteed vegetable, with its crisp crust, moistened slightly with the pan gravy. Mom could do these to perfection! Maybe that's why this dish is my favorite part of this memorable meal."

Steps:
- First, cut your tomatoes at 1/8 inch and lay out to dry -- I lay down paper towel and then place tomatoes on a cooling rack and then layer more paper towels on top. THIS STEP IS VERY IMPORTANT!
- While tomatoes are drying, mix together flour, black pepper, Italian seasoning, and cayenne pepper.
- Dip tomatoes slices into egg and milk mixture and then coat with flour and seasoning mixture.
- Place in a hot skillet with oil and fry for about 3 minutes on both sides or until browned.
- I usually place them back on the cooling rack so they don't get soggy when they are finished.
- Serve immediately!

BEST FRIED GREEN TOMATOES ON THE PLANET!!!
After trying Fried Green Tomatoes in several restaurants I finally broke down & threw this together to see if I could do better & voila! Best I've ever had so do try this & be sure to get ripe green tomatoes (or striped heirlooms) from your local farmer's market. That's the only way to enjoy them. Some places will cheat & use regualr tomatoes that aren't ripe (so they're still green) and the flavor is just awful. You really have to have ripe green ones to do it justice... My favorite is Giant German Green & I used to grow them at home but the squirrels & rabbits have done my garden in so I have to make the trip to Tom's Farms. Well worth it! Hope you enjoy! Oh, hey, if you like add a few drops hot sauce to the egg, try without first. If you have any bacon fat the flavor is worth it to add a bit of that to butter & oil.
