Fried Green Tomatoes With Dijon Pepper Dippin Sauce Recipes

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.

• Place potato flakes, wheat crackers, flour, butter-flavored granules, salt, and pepper into a food processor. Pulse until the crackers are finely crushed, then transfer mixture to a bowl.
• Melt the butter flavored shortening in a skillet over medium-high heat. Dip the tomato slices one at a time into the eggs, then the cracker mixture. Pan fry the tomatoes in the shortening until golden brown on both sides, 7 to 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Slice the tomatoes 1/4 inch thick. Lay them out in a shallow baking pan and sprinkle with salt. Place the tomato slices in a colander and allow time for the salt to pull the water out of the tomatoes (30 minutes should do it).
• In a skillet heat the oil for deep-frying over medium-high heat.
• Dip the tomatoes into buttermilk, then dredge them in flour. Deep-fry until golden brown.
• In the bowl of a food processor, combine the mustard, mayonnaise, balsamic vinegar, white pepper, and 1 tablespoon of the black pepper, and beat until just blended; set aside. In a small saucepan combine the oil, the remaining 3 tablespoons of black pepper, the red pepper flakes, and the whole peppercorns. Heat the oil until hot, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. Allow to cool, then strain. With the food processor running, drizzle the oil into the mayonnaise mixture. Continue processing for 2 minutes.
