Fried green tomatoes



Now and then someone asks how I make my fried green tomatoes, so I'm putting here.  It's super simple, but most of my recipes are very easy.

Choose a nice green tomato or two, cut out the woody stem if it has one, and if you got it from a grocery store, it probably does.
Slice it as evenly as you can, about a quarter inch thick slices.  The slices go into a small bowl of buttermilk to be coated nicely, then dredged in cornmeal or flour, your choice.  I prefer cornmeal.

Then they go in a single layer in my iron frying pan that has a half inch of hot oil in it...let them cook til browned, turning them once.
Sprinkle a little salt on them and enjoy!
