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!
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.
- Whisk eggs and milk together in a medium-size bowl. Scoop flour onto a plate. Mix cornmeal, bread crumbs and salt and pepper on another plate. Dip tomatoes into flour to coat. Then dip the tomatoes into milk and egg mixture. Dredge in breadcrumbs to completely coat.
- In a large skillet, pour vegetable oil (enough so that there is 1/2 inch of oil in the pan) and heat over a medium heat. 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.

FRIED GREEN TOMATOES AND GRITS
This came together one summer when I had a great deal of green tomatoes and wanted to try something different for dinner. My daughter and I love grits with bacon so this was invented. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Steps:
- 1. Fry bacon until crisp in skillet, cast-iron if you have it, save the bacon grease. Drain on paper towel. Crumble up when cool.
- 2. Combine flour and cornmeal, adding salt and pepper to taste. Beat eggs and add milk to make egg-dip.
- 3. Heat the skillet you fried the bacon in, you may add more oil if needed to the skillet. Coat green tomato slices in flour mixture, then dip in egg, then coat with flour mixture again. Put in hot skillet and fry until golden on each side, drain on paper towel.
- 4. In a medium pot, bring the water, milk, and salt to a boil. Slowly stir the grits into the boiling mixture. Stir continuously and thoroughly until grits are well mixed. Let the pot return to a boil, cover with a lid, lower the temperature, and cook for approximately 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add more milk if necessary. Grits should be creamy but not runny. Stir in the butter.
- 5. Place 4 green tomato slices on a plate. Put a heaping spoonful of grits on top and sprinkle the cumbled bacon evenly on the two plates.

- Rinse the tomatoes with cool water and pat them dry with paper towels. Slice them into 3/8" thick slices. (That's between 1/4 and 1/2" thick). Do not pat the cut surfaces of the tomato dry with paper towels.
- Pour enough oil into a cast iron or stainless steel skillet to reach a depth of 1/4" to 1/2" . The oil gets too hot for some nonstick skillets. Heat the oil over medium heat until very hot but not smoking. You will know it is ready when you sprinkle a few grains of cornmeal in it and it immediately sizzles. You can also use a candy thermometer if the oil is deep enough. I absolutely love using a digital, no contact infrared thermometer. You just point it at the oil and it reads the temp. Amazing. You want the temperature to be between 360 and 375 degrees. Keep a close watch on the oil while dredging the tomatoes.
- Gather 3 small plates or shallow bowls. I like to use paper plates for the dry mixtures for easy clean up. In one plate, combine the flour and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. In the second plate, whisk together the milk and egg with a fork. In the third plate, the cornmeal, breadcrumbs, pepper, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper.
- Working with 2 or 3 tomato slices at a time, press the tomato slice into the flour, coating both sides. If the flour doesn't stick to the edge of the tomato, run the edges through the egg/milk mixture, then back in the flour. Dip the flour coated slice into the egg/milk mixture, then gently press it into the cornmeal mixture.

- Slice green tomatoes 3/4 inch thick. Place in a shallow pan and pour buttermilk over the tomatoes. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding a little lemon juice to milk, half and half or heavy cream. Cover and refrigerate for 15-30 minutes.
- In another shallow pan mix the all-purpose flour and semolina flour with the salt and pepper. Stir with a fork to mix well.
- Add canola oil 3/4 inch deep in a non-stick frying pan. Heat over medium heat. Remove the tomato slices from the buttermilk and dredge in the flour mixture. Place the coated slices in the hot pan. You should hear it sizzle. The trick is to not let them get too brown on the outside before the inside gets cooked. Adjust the heat accordingly. Flip over and fry the other side until gold brown. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels. The tomatoes can be kept warm in a 250 degree oven until ready to use.
