Hmm.
Do I have a blog in me tonight?
Nope. Sorry.
Totally quiet night. Just making some fried green tomatoes for supper. Nothing worth talking about.
Wait.
[Cue the CB-radio noise]
Come in, Maripat? What was that? You want me to post your AWESOME recipe for fried green tomatoes? Copy that, little mama!
2 medium green tomatoes
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper (I used more)
1-1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (got mixed up and used T, and they were still wonderful)
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup bacon drippings (at least!)
Slice tomatoes 1/4-inch thick (or thicker, because I got carried away here, too, and they were still wonderful). Lightly salt and lay ’em on paper towels and chill. Then spread both sides with the mustard mix. Then coat with cornmeal. Then brown ’em up in the nectar of the gods bacon drippings. Drain on paper towels and salt to taste. Personally, I don’t think these babies need a dipping sauce, but you do your-own thing in that regard.
10-4, good mater.
