The Ones that Did Not Make It


Being a tomato in Seattle is hard, even in the best weather. Unfortunately, this summer was particularly and unusually cold and wet, and although we had a fairly decent crop of tomatoes, there were a LOT that didn't get quite enough sunshine and warmth to ripen. We'll try the brown-paper bag trick with these guys but I think it might be better to find a recipe for fried green tomatoes. Suggestions, anyone?

My grandma made kick-ass fried green tomatoes. As far as I remember, it was just 1)dip in egg, 2)dip in bread crumbs, 3)fry. Then she added flour & milk (I think) to the grease for gravy. Mmmm, midwestern cooking! Healthy! She winged everything, so she never wrote this stuff down either. But grandma's cooking was da bomb. Give it a shot!
