Fried Green Tomatoes Americana
Ingredients:
4 medium-sized green tomatoes, sliced 1/4 inch thick
1/2 cup fresh-churned buttermilk
2 eggs
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup flour seasoned with salt and pepper to taste
Vegetable oil (preferably of the peanut variety) for deep frying
In a large bowl combine the buttermilk, eggs, salt and pepper, and mix well. Put the tomato slices in this mixture, toss to coat, and let sit at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes.
Dip each slice of tomato in the seasoned flour mixture and fry - a few at a time - in a deep fryer with 3 to 4 inches of oil that has been heated to 350F. Fry for 3 to 5 minutes, or until golden brown.
Serves 4 to 6 lovers of green tomatoes.
