It sounds to me like you would prefer the tomatoes that are starting to color a bit in the middle, that's when they start to taste sour. The completely green ones won't taste sour. It's funny, I prefer the completely green ones, I don't like the sour taste of the ones starting to color. I prefer when they taste more like fried zucchini. To each their own I guess.

Salt your tomatoes and let drain on paper towel . Make a batter with self rising flour put what herbs you like.with a egg a little milk. Coat your tomatoes and fry. They are great on a hamburger. Look up Wipperwill Howller on KZbin she has a great recipe.for this.

My grandmother made fried green tomatoes and she would salt and pepper them before she breaded them and she would use a little bacon grease with the regular oil and then as soon as she pulled them out of the grease she would lightly salt them. But I also grew up in the south.
@SB_McCollumАй бұрын
Yes, fried green tomatoes are very tangy, you need the comfort of cornmeal in the mix or some good (not sweet) cornbread, and some kind of pork flavor - pork fat in your greens, smoked shoulder, or pork chops. It's about balancing the bite of the green tomato with what else is on the plate. (I would say BBQ, but that's become nothing but sauce to most people.)

For hurricane Irma, we lost power for seven days. And we live in the city and had absolutely no help from FEMA or any one anywhere. For this last hurricane, we lost power for 2 1/2 days. But this time we had a generator. And I had myself stocked up with food that could last on the shelf canned. As well as being able to plug my generator into my freezer and refrigerator. And it gave us one light in the house. It was a lifesaver. Since that first hurricane, I learned how to can food, how to dehydrate food, how to make bread from my own sourdough Starter . Basically I changed my whole lifestyle. Even though I live in a condo I spent a lot of time learning how to cook with fire and how to smoke food. I also have propane if needed. There is no substitute for preparation. I pray for all those people who were caught in this horrible storm right here in town who lost their homes in 4 1/2 feet of water. And for the people that I know in North Carolina and in that whole Area. People drowning, people suffering, it’s horrible and I hope it’s over soon for the survivors, and they are able to get back on their feet and get back to their lives. But one of the reasons I love watching your channel is because you are so self-sufficient it just makes me happy.

Ok from the south here. Fried green tomatoes are excellent cooked right. You need to slice them thinner and salt them and sweat them. Pat them dry and salt and pepper them and batter with dry corn meal and fry them on medium until a fork sticks through them and they are soft. Also, you probably need a little more oil in your pan.

Fellow Canadian here, when I moved to the southern US years ago I fell in love with fried green tomatoes. There are different ways to cook them, cornmeal, or batter, or flour etc. So that could affect how you feel about them. You could also slice the tomatoes a little thinner for a different proportion of tomato to batter. I’m no southerner so don’t claim any real knowledge, just speaking from my experience. I think it’s like everything else, we all like different things, don’t we? I had never heard of a fried green tomato until the beloved movie, but I’m now a fan of both 😉
@mtncreekdawn2 ай бұрын
Those tomatoes definitely look too thick. The best ones I've eaten (from a little mom & pop place) are maybe half that thick. I suspect the tomatoes are salted & allowed to drain a bit before the batter. Possibly other seasoning but not much. The lower frying temp looks right. I didn't grow up them. Maybe early 20s?

I’ve made fried green tomatoes in a non-traditional way - just flour, egg, breadcrumbs like eggplant parm, pan fried in oil. They were fine but not my thing. I did not grow up eating fried green tomatoes though. I DID, however, grow up eating fried RED tomatoes. My family makes red tomatoes coated in salted flour pan fried in Crisco and they get a caramelized sweetness to them that’s delicious. As my mom told me, the secret is not to be impatient. You have to let them get their golden brown crust on the first side before flipping them. ☺️

Girlfriend, coming from a true southern that ate fried green tomatos all my life. Here is what you need to do. First salt and pepper, those tomatoes before you batter them. If you like some zip of heat. Add that to the batter. I have used, Tabasco, red pepper powder, horseradish in ketchup. Sauce is the topper to use on those delicious delights. While you were cooking them, I could taste them in my mouth. You just needed spicing. You will love them.

A hint from this southern gal. If you rest your tomatoes after you batter them then fry them you get the most amazing crust! Let them rest for about 10 minutes or so. Just until they get gummy. Also if you're left with a bunch of green tomatoes at the end of the season you can slice them and can them. Then you have them throughout the winter for something warm and comforting.
