CHEF JOHN'S FRIED GREEN TOMATOES
Fried green tomatoes are a southern American classic. Such an easy recipe! Serve with a little dollop of spicy remoulade sauce (which is Southern for tartar sauce). Oh yeah.

Steps:
- Place tomato slices onto a rack over a paper towel. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and let slices stand for 15 minutes for the salt to draw out extra juices.
- Mix cornmeal and bread crumbs together in a bowl; stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper to taste. Beat eggs with milk in a separate bowl. Place flour into a third bowl.
- Pat tomato slices dry with paper towels. Lay slices, one at a time, into flour; flip to coat both sides and let slices rest in the flour for about 30 seconds. Remove each slice and dip in egg mixture, then into cornmeal mixture, coating both sides of each slice thoroughly. Spread crumbs onto all sides and into tomato crevices with a fork. Rest tomatoes on rack for 10 minutes to let coating set.
- Combine sweet pickle relish, mayonnaise, and hot sauce in a small bowl to make the remoulade sauce.
- Place a large nonstick skillet over medium heat; heat vegetable oil with butter until butter melts, bubbles, and makes a sizzling sound. Fry tomatoes in the hot butter-oil mixture until tomato slices are slightly soft and coating is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Use a spatula and a fork to flip.
- Transfer fried green tomatoes to a serving platter and serve with remoulade sauce.

FRIED GREEN TOMATOES WITH REMOULADE
The green tomato is an anchor of Southern cooking. I like to fry them until they're brilliantly crispy and golden brown. It's so simple and straightforward, just like Southern food should be.

Steps:
- For the remoulade: In a small mixing bowl, combine the mayo, shallots, scallions, mustard, cayenne, hot sauce, lemon juice, Worcestershire, a pinch of salt, and lemon zest. Adjust the seasoning with more salt and hot sauce if needed and reserve. Makes 1½ cups.
- Fry the tomatoes: Bring cast-iron skillet to medium-high heat. Season the green tomato slices with salt. Set aside on a rack fitted over a rimmed baking sheet, which will later become the cooling rack after frying. Find 3 similarly shaped shallow baking dishes. In the first, add flour. In the second, pour the eggs. In the third, add cornmeal. We are creating an assembling line of dredging. One by one, flour a tomato slice on both sides, dunk in the egg mixture, and then dredge in the cornmeal. As you finish each tomato, stack them on a cutting board.When the skillet has preheated, add the oil and heat to shimmering. Fry the green tomatoes until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Assemble the dish: When the tomatoes are crispy, golden brown, and heated through, place them on the cooling rack. Dollop a tablespoon of remoulade on a serving plate and arrange the fried green tomatoes over the sauce. Garnish with some arugula, more remoulade and serve immediately. Nobody wants soggy tomatoes!
BREAD AND BUTTER PICKLED GREEN TOMATOES
We haven't tried preparing this one yet, but we have eaten them, and they are delicious if you like bread and butter pickles. We don't have a garden and have never found green tomatoes in the grocery store for less than $2-3 per pound, a little too pricy for pickling.

Steps:
- Wash tomatoes thoroughly, cut away any blemishes or bad spots, and cut into 1/4" thick slices.
- Combine 2 gallons water and pickling lime in a large glass or plastic bowl; not metal.
- Add tomatoes, and soak for 24 hours, mixing a couple times.
- Drain tomatoes, cover with fresh water, and soak 4 hours longer, changing water every 1/2 hour, then rinse and drain well.
- In a large nonreactive pot, combine vinegar and sugar, and bring to a boil.
- While the mixture is heating, combine all spices in a double layer of rinsed cheesecloth, and tie cheesecloth into a pouch with string.
- Place spice-pouch in boiling syrup, and continue to boil for 15 minutes.
- Remove from heat, and add sliced tomatoes.
- Stir gently, cover with a clean towel, and let stand overnight, stirring gently a couple of times if you think of it.
- In the morning, bring the syrup and tomatoes to a simmer, gently mixing occasionally, for about 30 minutes or until tomatoes are translucent.
- Remove and discard spice pouch.
- Meanwhile sterilize 6 1-pint canning jars and lids according to manufacturers directions.
- Layer hot tomatoes in hot sterilized jars to about 1/2" below the rim.
- Pour hot syrup over top, covering tomatoes by 1/4" and leaving 1/4" of head space.
- Slide a plastic chopstick or wooden skewer along the insides of the jars to release air bubbles, and tap each jar lightly on counter a couple of times to release more.
- Wipe the mouth of each jar with a clean damp cloth, place a hot sterilized lid on each jar, and screw on bands firmly.
- Process in a boiling-water bath for 10 minutes, starting timing after water returns to a boil.
- Cool, making sure that lids have sealed.
- Jars that leak during processing or dont seal should be stored in the refrigerator and used within a couple of weeks.
- Store sealed jars at room temperature if desired.
- Pickles can be served after 24 hours but are better if allowed to mellow in a cool, dry place for 2-3 weeks before using.

BREAD AND BUTTER PICKLED GREEN TOMATOES
Though the job is spread over three days, making this pickle is actually quite easy and well worth the effort.

Steps:
- Wash tomatoes thoroughly; cut away any bad spots. Cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
- Combine 2 gallons of water and the pickling lime in a large nonreactive bowl, and add tomatoes. Let soak for 24 hours.
- Drain tomatoes, and cover with fresh water. Soak for 4 hours, changing water every half hour. Rinse, and drain well.
- Make syrup: In a large nonreactive pot, combine sugar and vinegar, and bring to a boil. Fold an 8-by-16-inch piece of cheesecloth in half to make a square; rinse with water, and squeeze dry. Place cloves, cinnamon, allspice, celery seeds, mace, and ginger in the cheesecloth; tie closed with one end of a 12-inch piece of cotton string. Tie a loop in the other end, and slip it over the handle of a wooden spoon. Suspend spice bag in the syrup by placing the spoon across the top of the pot. Remove syrup from heat, add tomatoes, and let sit overnight at room temperature, covered with a clean dish towel.
- Remove kitchen towel, and transfer pot back to the stove. Bring tomatoes to a simmer over medium-high heat, and cook, pushing them into the syrup occasionally, until translucent, about 35 minutes.
- Meanwhile, sterilize the jars and lids: Place a round wire rack in the bottom of a large stockpot. The rack should fit as snugly as possible and should stand 1/2 to 1 inch above the bottom of the pot. Wash the jars, lids, and screw bands with hot, soapy water. Stand six pint jars on the rack, and add the lids; it's not necessary to add the screw bands. Fill the pot with enough water to cover jars by 1 to 2 inches; an additional 1 to 2 inches of space should remain below the rim of the pot so the water doesn't overflow. Cover, and bring the water to a simmer (180 degrees.; let the lids and jars simmer 10 minutes. (The lids and jars can continue to simmer until you're ready to fill them.)
- Using a jar lifter, remove a jar from the simmering water, and empty the water back into the stockpot. Place the jar on a clean surface. Using stainless-steel tongs, layer hot tomatoes in hot sterilized pint jars, leaving 3/4 inch of space beneath the rim. Pour hot syrup over tomatoes, covering them by 1/4 inch, leaving 1/2 inch of space beneath the rim. Slide a clean plastic chopstick or wooden skewer along the inside of each jar to release any air bubbles. Wipe the mouth of the jar with a clean, damp cloth. Place hot lid on jar; turn screw band firmly without forcing. Repeat with remaining jars and tomatoes.
- With the jar lifter, return the filled jars to the stockpot of simmering water, making sure the jars aren't touching the sides of the pot and are spaced about 1 inch apart.
- Raise the heat to high, cover the stockpot, and bring the water to a boil. Process the jars in the boiling water for 10 minutes. Remove the jars from the water bath with the jar lifter, and transfer them to a wire rack to cool for 24 hours. As the tomatoes cool, a vacuum will form inside the jar, sealing it; you might hear a popping sound. A slight indentation in the lid indicates the vacuum seal; the lid should not flex up and down when pressed firmly with a finger. Store in a cool, dry, dark place for up to 1 year. The tomatoes can be served when cool but are more flavorful when allowed to mellow in a cool, dry place for 2 to 3 weeks. Store opened jars in the refrigerator.
