FRIED GREEN TOMATOES WITH REMOULADE



Fried Green Tomatoes with Remoulade image

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.

Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup mayonnaise
2 Shallots, minced
6 Scallions, thinly sliced, white and pale green parts
2 tbsps whole grain Creole-style mustard
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon Louisiana-style hot sauce (Crystal)
1 tbsp Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, (omit for vegetarian remoulade)
kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest, grated
12 Slices of green tomato, 1/3 of an inch thick
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 Eggs, beaten with 1/4 cup cold water
1 cup fine yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Arugula, for serving

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!

BREAD AND BUTTER PICKLED GREEN TOMATOES



Bread and Butter Pickled Green Tomatoes image

We haven't tried preparing this one yet, but we have eaten them, and they are delicious if you like bread and butter pickles. We don't have a garden and have never found green tomatoes in the grocery store for less than $2-3 per pound, a little too pricy for pickling.

Provided by Toby Jermain

Categories     Vegetable

Time P1DT6h

Yield 6 pints

Number Of Ingredients 10

7 lbs green tomatoes
1 cup pickling lime (can be found in grocery stores where canning supplies are located)
5 lbs sugar
1 1/2 quarts white vinegar
1 tablespoon whole cloves
5 small cinnamon sticks
1 tablespoon whole allspice
1 teaspoon celery seed
1/4 teaspoon ground mace
3 inches fresh ginger, peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch thick rounds

Steps:

  • Wash tomatoes thoroughly, cut away any blemishes or bad spots, and cut into 1/4" thick slices.
  • Combine 2 gallons water and pickling lime in a large glass or plastic bowl; not metal.
  • Add tomatoes, and soak for 24 hours, mixing a couple times.
  • Drain tomatoes, cover with fresh water, and soak 4 hours longer, changing water every 1/2 hour, then rinse and drain well.
  • In a large nonreactive pot, combine vinegar and sugar, and bring to a boil.
  • While the mixture is heating, combine all spices in a double layer of rinsed cheesecloth, and tie cheesecloth into a pouch with string.
  • Place spice-pouch in boiling syrup, and continue to boil for 15 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, and add sliced tomatoes.
  • Stir gently, cover with a clean towel, and let stand overnight, stirring gently a couple of times if you think of it.
  • In the morning, bring the syrup and tomatoes to a simmer, gently mixing occasionally, for about 30 minutes or until tomatoes are translucent.
  • Remove and discard spice pouch.
  • Meanwhile sterilize 6 1-pint canning jars and lids according to manufacturers directions.
  • Layer hot tomatoes in hot sterilized jars to about 1/2" below the rim.
  • Pour hot syrup over top, covering tomatoes by 1/4" and leaving 1/4" of head space.
  • Slide a plastic chopstick or wooden skewer along the insides of the jars to release air bubbles, and tap each jar lightly on counter a couple of times to release more.
  • Wipe the mouth of each jar with a clean damp cloth, place a hot sterilized lid on each jar, and screw on bands firmly.
  • Process in a boiling-water bath for 10 minutes, starting timing after water returns to a boil.
  • Cool, making sure that lids have sealed.
  • Jars that leak during processing or don’t seal should be stored in the refrigerator and used within a couple of weeks.
  • Store sealed jars at room temperature if desired.
  • Pickles can be served after 24 hours but are better if allowed to mellow in a cool, dry place for 2-3 weeks before using.

BREAD AND BUTTER PICKLED GREEN TOMATOES



Bread and Butter Pickled Green Tomatoes image

Though the job is spread over three days, making this pickle is actually quite easy and well worth the effort.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Yield Makes 6 pint jars

Number Of Ingredients 10

7 pounds green tomatoes
1 cup pickling lime
5 pounds sugar
6 cups white vinegar
1 tablespoon whole cloves
5 cinnamon sticks
1 tablespoon whole allspice
1 teaspoon whole celery seed
2 blades mace
1 3-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and sliced in 1/4-inch rounds

Steps:

  • Wash tomatoes thoroughly; cut away any bad spots. Cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
  • Combine 2 gallons of water and the pickling lime in a large nonreactive bowl, and add tomatoes. Let soak for 24 hours.
  • Drain tomatoes, and cover with fresh water. Soak for 4 hours, changing water every half hour. Rinse, and drain well.
  • Make syrup: In a large nonreactive pot, combine sugar and vinegar, and bring to a boil. Fold an 8-by-16-inch piece of cheesecloth in half to make a square; rinse with water, and squeeze dry. Place cloves, cinnamon, allspice, celery seeds, mace, and ginger in the cheesecloth; tie closed with one end of a 12-inch piece of cotton string. Tie a loop in the other end, and slip it over the handle of a wooden spoon. Suspend spice bag in the syrup by placing the spoon across the top of the pot. Remove syrup from heat, add tomatoes, and let sit overnight at room temperature, covered with a clean dish towel.
  • Remove kitchen towel, and transfer pot back to the stove. Bring tomatoes to a simmer over medium-high heat, and cook, pushing them into the syrup occasionally, until translucent, about 35 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, sterilize the jars and lids: Place a round wire rack in the bottom of a large stockpot. The rack should fit as snugly as possible and should stand 1/2 to 1 inch above the bottom of the pot. Wash the jars, lids, and screw bands with hot, soapy water. Stand six pint jars on the rack, and add the lids; it's not necessary to add the screw bands. Fill the pot with enough water to cover jars by 1 to 2 inches; an additional 1 to 2 inches of space should remain below the rim of the pot so the water doesn't overflow. Cover, and bring the water to a simmer (180 degrees.; let the lids and jars simmer 10 minutes. (The lids and jars can continue to simmer until you're ready to fill them.)
  • Using a jar lifter, remove a jar from the simmering water, and empty the water back into the stockpot. Place the jar on a clean surface. Using stainless-steel tongs, layer hot tomatoes in hot sterilized pint jars, leaving 3/4 inch of space beneath the rim. Pour hot syrup over tomatoes, covering them by 1/4 inch, leaving 1/2 inch of space beneath the rim. Slide a clean plastic chopstick or wooden skewer along the inside of each jar to release any air bubbles. Wipe the mouth of the jar with a clean, damp cloth. Place hot lid on jar; turn screw band firmly without forcing. Repeat with remaining jars and tomatoes.
  • With the jar lifter, return the filled jars to the stockpot of simmering water, making sure the jars aren't touching the sides of the pot and are spaced about 1 inch apart.
  • Raise the heat to high, cover the stockpot, and bring the water to a boil. Process the jars in the boiling water for 10 minutes. Remove the jars from the water bath with the jar lifter, and transfer them to a wire rack to cool for 24 hours. As the tomatoes cool, a vacuum will form inside the jar, sealing it; you might hear a popping sound. A slight indentation in the lid indicates the vacuum seal; the lid should not flex up and down when pressed firmly with a finger. Store in a cool, dry, dark place for up to 1 year. The tomatoes can be served when cool but are more flavorful when allowed to mellow in a cool, dry place for 2 to 3 weeks. Store opened jars in the refrigerator.

CHEF JOHN'S FRIED GREEN TOMATOES



Chef John's Fried Green Tomatoes image

Fried green tomatoes are a southern American classic. Such an easy recipe! Serve with a little dollop of spicy remoulade sauce (which is Southern for tartar sauce). Oh yeah.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Side Dish     Vegetables     Tomatoes     Fried Green Tomato Recipes

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 (1/2 inch) slices green tomato
1 teaspoon salt
¾ cup cornmeal
¾ cup bread crumbs
½ teaspoon salt
freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 eggs
2 tablespoons milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons hot sauce, or to taste

Steps:

  • Place tomato slices onto a rack over a paper towel. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and let slices stand for 15 minutes for the salt to draw out extra juices.
  • Mix cornmeal and bread crumbs together in a bowl; stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper to taste. Beat eggs with milk in a separate bowl. Place flour into a third bowl.
  • Pat tomato slices dry with paper towels. Lay slices, one at a time, into flour; flip to coat both sides and let slices rest in the flour for about 30 seconds. Remove each slice and dip in egg mixture, then into cornmeal mixture, coating both sides of each slice thoroughly. Spread crumbs onto all sides and into tomato crevices with a fork. Rest tomatoes on rack for 10 minutes to let coating set.
  • Combine sweet pickle relish, mayonnaise, and hot sauce in a small bowl to make the remoulade sauce.
  • Place a large nonstick skillet over medium heat; heat vegetable oil with butter until butter melts, bubbles, and makes a sizzling sound. Fry tomatoes in the hot butter-oil mixture until tomato slices are slightly soft and coating is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Use a spatula and a fork to flip.
  • Transfer fried green tomatoes to a serving platter and serve with remoulade sauce.

BUTTERMILK FRIED GREEN TOMATOES



Buttermilk Fried Green Tomatoes image

I did a search and came up with many fried green tomato recipes on here, but this one is different in that it uses buttermilk, and no cornmeal. Culinary lore says that ripe red tomatoes felt so much like human skin that eating them was considered improperly erotic. In any case, there was something suspect about this New World member of the nightshade family that the Spaniards first brought back to Europe. One solution to it's naughty nature was to eat green tomatoes, which are firm and not nearly as sweet as ripe ones. This version is delicious. Cook times are guestimates.

Tips:

  • Choose firm, unripe green tomatoes for frying. This will help them hold their shape and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Slice the tomatoes about 1/2-inch thick. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • To bread the tomatoes, first dip them in flour, then in eggs, and finally in breadcrumbs. This will help them get a crispy coating.
  • Fry the tomatoes in hot oil until they are golden brown on both sides. This will take about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Serve the fried green tomatoes with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing, ketchup, or barbecue sauce.
  • For the bread and butter pickled remoulade, make sure to use good-quality pickles and mayonnaise. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the sauce.
  • If you don't have time to make the bread and butter pickled remoulade, you can use a store-bought tartar sauce instead.

Conclusion:

Fried green tomatoes are a classic Southern dish that is enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. The bread and butter pickled remoulade is the perfect complement to the fried green tomatoes, adding a tangy and flavorful twist.
