Guest guest Posted August 20, 2005 Report Share Posted August 20, 2005 Lately, I've been on a fried green tomatoes kick, and make them much like the recipe in the movie of the same name: I take the biggest and greenest unripened tomatoes from my garden, wash them well, and slice thin: dip in beaten egg or egg substitute, dredge in flour, then corn meal, fry in peanut oil 'til golden brown on both sides, drain on paper towels, and season with salt-n-pepper to taste--delish! And just a few hours ago, we harvested our first batch of green peppers and concord grapes--The entire house smells like Manischewitz By the way, I'm new here--my name is Helene and I'm a stay-at-home mother of 3 ages, 13, 9 and 3--my husband Peter is a special education teacher and newly ordained Anglican priest, and we've been married 14 years--we live in NJ. Hobbies include, but are not limited to, reading, writing, music, and gardening. I've been a vegetarian/vegan since 1987--my family are nowhere as diligent as I am, but the best I can do is set a good example. Looking forward to participating in any and all discussion as much as time allows. Blessings, Helene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 Welcome to the group, Helene. I wish I wasn't so stingy with my tomatoes, I find it hard to pick them green, but the few times I've made Fried Green Tomatoes, they are soooo good! I also have lots of yellow squash coming up, so I should do a big fry one of these days! Hope you enjoy the group and thanks for starting out with a recipe post!
