Love this video. My mama taught me to cube the green tomatoes, cube a Vidalia onion, but to slice a yellow squash. Toss in a bowl firstly with salt and pepper and then with about 1/4 cup cornmeal. You can add a Tablesppon of flour, if desired. This is a WINNING combination. Fry it just as you did. We have this all summer long. Hope y'all try it!
You should season the tomatoes &/or the coating, but not the oil. You will kill somebody w/all that salt😵
Oh my goodness love love love it lolol
@@davidbetsey2437 I could never add that much salt.
As a Southern lady, If you mix corn meal in the flour, equal parts, the tomatoes will be nice & crispy. Yummy.
Thank you so much for watching and for your comment. We appreciate it
Yes! Indeed Southerners Love Fried and Fresh Green Tomatoes and We also Love a Tomato , Mayo
S&P SANDWICHES!! THAT SANDWICH IS ALL I NEED AT TIMES
YUMMY😊
I love fried green tomatoes. I could eat 3 or 4 by myself.
I prefer fried green tomatoes that have just begun to turn red. They have a richer, more tangy flavor. Fried Green tomatoes are my very favorite fresh garden food.
Love that you and Melissa converse during cooking.
I love a good fried green tomato! Yours look amazing! My Memaw and Mama made (not sure what it is called, we just referred to it as a fried vegetable medley. You cube potatoes, diced onion, green tomatoes, zucchini or yellow squash, as close to same size as possible. Start with potatoes first then add other veggies in. Fry slow until vegetables are tender but not mushy. Season with salt & pepper and just before we it finishes frying sprinkle with cornmeal. It is fresh and delicious! Ive read that it was just named "all" ? Anyway, of course best fried in bacon grease 😊
😅 I forgot okra is added as well!! ( in the fried vegetable medley)
Bacon grease made EVERYTHING better!! Yum!
Loved this video. I have always fried mine in corn meal and often bacon grease. I have green tomatoes sitting on my counter now and will give this method a try!
Thanks, Krista. Hope you like them this way. We really appreciate that you've watched our videos. Hope you're enjoying the summer.
Exactly.
I totally get your preference of tomatoes that have NOT begun to ripen even slightly. They taste difference to me too! I had a huge garden back in the day and canned. We never fixed friend green tomatoes until the end of season when the heat was gone but still had green tomatoes in the vine. Those were the very best for frying. We also had a great pickling recipe for green tomatoes.
The first time I tried frying green tomatoes the flour wouldn't stick to them. I was wondering what I did wrong and now I realized that I missed a step which was dipping them in the beaten eggs first. Thank you again for this recipe. You're always cooking something I like.
I am out west and tried my first fried green tomatoe about 5 yrs ago. I did not know what i had been missing! I now search out green tomatoes and do it just like you are ❤
Fried green tomatoes with bacon AND pimento cheese sandwich is so good! Of course the pimento cheese is homemade 😊
We love that combination. And homemade pimento cheese was our second video ever so you know we love it! Thanks so much for watching.
Yeah, we southerners take credit for these originally. 😊 However, the first time I had them was at Tamarack, the Arts and Crafts Center in WV. Our favorite fried green tomato restaurant closed, so I'm looking forward to making mine! We like ours with a spicy mustard sauce (Just mustard, tabasco, sour cream, and mayo). I hope you try it and like it! Thanks!
Takes back home. Mom's been gone for years now and this video took back in her kitchen with wonderful memories. I still haven't mastered her technique, but their still yummy! Thank you!
I just stumbled onto your videos and I just love your recipes and the cooking.❤
Love fried green tomatoes. I agree, they're much better before they've started to turn. Fried green tomato and bacon sandwich sounds yummy!
Cornmeal n flour for me and cut in wedges. This is how a restaurant did it. Loved it. With a dipping dressing that was creamy/spicey. Yum
We love fried green tomatoes! So glad to hear about your experience with them that you enjoyed so much. Hope you're having a great night. Thanks so much for watching our channel.
Thank you for writing the recipe at the end of your video Melissa, much appreciated.
Funny how everyone does green tomatoes differently. In our area, (Indiana), we just use self-rising flour, salt, and pepper...no egg, no cornmeal. And I agree with your friend. I have to have a little bit of red on mine. All green tastes too 'green' to me! These look perfect. Now you are making my mouth water. I've only had one mess so far this year. These look so good!! A restaurant in our area serves that fried green tomato BLT. It is so tasty! I like mine on white Wonder Bread with butter and salt!
Absolutely, it's a matter of personal preference about what type of tomatoes to use. I will say that I have enjoyed a fried green tomato BLT sandwich before. Those are fabulous!
I’m in WI and I have heard of fried green tomatoes but never had them. This recipe is a must for me to try. Thank you for sharing!
I have lived in the North all my life. Love fried green tomatoes and bread tomatoes.

My mom was born and raised in southern Arkansas. I loved my mom's cooking. I loved Fried Green Tomatoes! But I don't garden. Both my folks did😊. I watch your videos and have picked up some great tips and recipes. Thank you. Take care of each other.
Hello Arkansas.. I'm from North Little Rock. My PawPaw had a huge garden and we did a lot of canning and freezing. MawMaw made really good tomatoes..she also used flour.
Fry sopme okra along sidevtge squash and green tomatoes. MMMMMM. Veggie meal.
I put onion powder and sometimes garlic powder on mine. Every body loves them. Also, add a tablespoon of corn meal in mine. Love your show.

Love fried green tomatoes! 💜
These were so wonderful! Thanks for watching.
I love fried green tomatoes, battered in corn meal and flour and the dipped in ranch dressing. Thanks for the great video. 💓💓
I love fried green tomatoes ! Yum! They are also good with grits.
Love me some fried green tomatoes! I have also done them in a air fryer and they were delicious.
Oh yes! That's a great way to prepare them. Thanks so much for watching. We appreciate it.
My Kentucky momma dredged those green tomatoes in corn meal and fried them in bacon grease. Best I’ve ever had to this day. 🌺🌺🌺
I love fried green tomatoes!
We do, too! They are a great comfort food. Thank you so much for watching our channel.
I love fried green tomatoes. I was raised eating them in the south. I live in Elizabethton Tennessee. Thank you so much for the wonderful video.
Southern California
Love fried green tomatoes but I like my a little red too!
Yummmmm!!!! Thank you for this wonderful recipe!!
Hope you enjoy! Thanks for watching.
Can't wait to try. Love the way you clean as you go, that's a habit I will adopt. God bless
Thank you so much for the nice comments. We really appreciate that you're watching.
I just finished supper but now I'm hungry for fried green maters! I do about 3 parts corn meal to 1 part flour & fry them in bacon grease. But I'm with you, the greener the better. And YESSSS to the bacon mater "sammiches" hehehe.
I wish so bad I had a gas stove. I miss that so much.
Years ago I was watching a friend of mine's kids while they went on a cruise. I had the kids run out to the garden and pick me some green tomatoes & I fried em up. 2 of the 3 kids loved em, the other one not so much. I considered that a success.
I only use flour in mine also. Looks good. Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much for watching our video.
Cornmeal with your flour is a very nice addition.... adds texture. Plus, slice 'em thin and get them crisp.
Tom, I am so impressed that you are Meticulous with cooking your recipes. I just know you cook delicious food.
Looks delicious!
We really enjoy fried green tomatoes. The ones we have had this summer have been fantastic! Thank you very much for watching our video.
Had fried green tomatoes at The Loveless Cafe just outside of Nashville about 4 years ago. So good! I’ll have to try these. Just got some fresh green tomatoes yesterday.
We think you'll love them! Thank you so much for watching. We really appreciate it.
After looking at your video - I went out and purchase some green tomatoes and I cooked them exactly like you did and they were excellent! Thank you for the recipe! By the way, I ordered that special ingredient for my meatloaf. I found it on Amazon and I am making meatloaf for my Sunday dinner. I will let you know how it came out. Keep cooking!!!!!!!
Fried Green Tomatoes!! Staple at my house!!😋😋 Great video!!💚💚💚
Thank you! We love them! We appreciate you watching.
We're from Missouri and we like our fried green tomatoes dipped in flour too!
My first time here and I sure enjoyed your video. The tomatoes look so yummy!
I put some pepper on mine. When I was a child my uncle made fried green tomato sandwiches with fried egg and a bit of mustard on top!
Sometimes I would add pepper or Italian seasoning. Yes I have eaten them with a fried egg Great minds think alike ;-)
I can smell those delicious tomatoes from here. Yummy 😋
They are delicious! Thank you so much for watching!
😋Delicious!! I have been wanting some fried green tomatoes and now, I'm going to have to go fix me some!
You should! They were fantastic and it's definitely the season for it! Thanks for watching.
Just found your channel and am enjoying your cooking videos. Will definitely try the fried green tomatoes. I had them at Paula Deen's and they were served with a red pepper sauce which was very tasty.
Thank you for the recipe! The first time I had them was at Magnolias in Charleston. Omg! I have been hooked on them ever since.
They are such a nice appetizer or side dish. I've even had one served on a hamburger before. We hope you can make these soon. Enjoy and have a very Merry Christmas!
I absolutely like Is green tomatoes. I make them every fall and we eat them eat them
I love fried green tomatoes. I also like fried okra fried with the tomatoes
I have eaten these since I was a kid (in my mid 70's now). Love them. It use to be you liked them or you didn't. However, since the Covid thing came out many people were trying to cook at home that never use to. They started gardening, and had a lot of tomatoes. So they tried them and now they are eating them. Thinking it's a new thing, but it isn't. It's an old dish a little tart, but I think they thought it would taste more like a red tomato. Now I am hearing that many more like the fried ones! I have never tried a GFT sandwich with bacon before, just always just had the fried as a side dish. Never dipped it in a sauce, as I liked them just as they are fried. Love from Western, N.Y.
It was great hearing from you. We are always so tickled to try something we thought we wouldn't care for and then like it. Like the folks you described during the pandemic who tried FGT for the first time and found them to their liking. It's a wonderful moment for the taste buds! We appreciate that you are joining us from Western NY.
Love fried green tomatoes, although I haven't made them in a while. Watching your video and reading the comments reminded me of a recipe I haven't made in years. Green tomato cake. My comments written on the page of my recipe reminded me of how delicious it is. Too bad I've had a hard time this year trying to find green tomatoes!
I've never heard of a green tomato cake but it sounds great. The season has almost passed for getting a good green tomato, that's for sure! It's a shame we can't get good tomatoes (of any kind) all year long. But then again, maybe that's why we enjoy and appreciate them so much when we can.
I learned about Fried Green Tomatoes from the movie Fried Green Tomatoes. Yum Yum!!! But I add pepper too😉
Those looked amazing. Never had one but will definitely try.
You should! They are great as an appetizer, a side dish, or just a meal all by themselves. They are found on many menus in the south. Hope you get to try them soon. This is definitely the season for green tomatoes!
I love fried green tomatoes. We used to have a restaurant close by that served them with pimento cheese spread between two of them. Delicious!
Thank You Tom and Melissa ❤❤
I have never had fried green tomatoes, but these look fantastic. I will have to give this recipe a try. Thank you for another great video.
You are so welcome! We hope you give them a try soon! Thanks so much for watching.
I used corn meal on mine
I have ate fried green tomatoes all my life. Always used cornmeal and flour. My husband and I went to Capronis restaurant in Maysville years ago. They served them with of all things, salsa! My husband and daughter always has to have it with their fried green tomatoes.
Дакшат 😍👍
My sister made them once when I was single digits aged, for someone else. Now, I get to try my hand at this recipe!🤓😁🤭😇 Doug
We have eaten fried green tomatoes all our lives and love them so much. We cook them just like you do and like them by themselves with no sauce. You just can't beat them with a summer meal. We, too, have made a meal out of fried yellow squash and fried green tomatoes on several occasions. Yum!
It's kind of a southern comfort meal. It's delicious and we enjoy it so much. We appreciate that you are watching our channel. Have a great day!
You are correct, many restaurants have no idea how to prepare fried green tomatoes. I am from the South. This was a staple. Yours are beautiful. So much technology you would think we could taste these for you. 😅😅😅
Thank you!!
You are welcome. Thank you for watching.
Mercy. I love fried green tomatoes. My dad cooked them fresh from the garden. But had corn meal mixture . When we had fish fries. Yummy. I may go to farmers market Saturday and see if I can buy some green tomatoes. Love ya'll. And your videos!!
Thank you so much for that nice comment. We really appreciate that you are at the table with us.
Scrumptious! Little Ranch Dressing and you have something out of this world good!
I hadn't thought about Ranch Dressing with them, but yes, that would be scrumptious!
My mother use to fix these when I was younger especially on Saturday mornings with 🥓 eggs and toast. When I got married I introduced to my husband and he loved as well.And I'm from the North.
Excellent 👍 years ago I rented a movie and they were making these in the movie. The recipe came with the movie, I still have it. Thanks for the memories
I just wet mine with water and dredge in flour so it's not so heavy with flour. No salt and I add some butter to the oil. Then drain them on a cookie rack. Yours look great. I live in Mn, I get funny looks when I talk about fried green tomatoes 😀
Oh, sounds delish with Bacon. Yum
My Mother liked fried ripe tomatoes, I do also.
I love them, too, but I add a bit of buttermilk to the egg, and some corn starch to the flour. Delicious!
We make fried green tomatoes all year long. Its also good mixing flour and corn meal .We can them up then fry them For canned all you do is to wash tomatoes cut into about 1/4 inch slices stick into wide mouth jars. Add salt and water and leave 1 inch head space. Seal and Hot water bath for 5 min. Thats it. I know alot of people says not safe. My great great grandmother done this until she passed and my mother got the reciepe been doing that for over 100 years . Its safe
My Mom mixed flour with cornmeal for dipping and egg/ S&P. So yummy
I grew up in the North, and learned to cook there. My family often had fried green tomatoes. I think it was a way to stretch foods.
I love fried green tomatoes! I also preserve them by canning them and they are a delicious meal in January lol. Sprinkle on some Parmesan cheese! Delicious!
We have some green tomatoes canned as well! You're right - they are a great treat in January!
I love fried green tomatoes!!! I want them on the small side, sliced fairly thin and green as a gourd lol
They are delicious! We're loving the comments! Thanks so much for watching.
Omg delicious looking!!!!…that looks so yummy❤
They were so delicious! We hope you enjoy them soon!
I like to mix cornmeal with the flour. It adds just a little more crunch i think. Thank you for posting this. Love all of your videos!
Thank you so much. The cornmeal is going to do exactly what you said and add a bit of a crunch. It's all about personal preference. We can enjoy them prepared both ways. Thank you so much for watching our videos. We really do appreciate it.
Hello. Recently discovered your channel. You have some nice looking dishes!! I love fried green tomatoes, but couldn't get green tomatoes after the end of summer. I have discovered tomatillos are carried in my local grocery chain year round and they are very, very tart. I think you will love them since you don't care for green tomatoes that have a little pink inside. I love them fried like we do green tomatoes. Please try them; I think you will enjoy!!
My family visited Savannah Georga and ate in a restaurant there. The menu had a BLT which had fried green tomatoes on it. I had it but my family said yuck!! Well, it was delicious, and I now eat some that way every summer. My Kentucky Grandmother made them with half cornmeal, half self rising flour and dipped in buttermilk first then the flour mixture, no eggs. Everyone does them different and all are delicious!
Fried green tomatoes and fried squash are two of my most favorite things to eat in the Summer!
Absolutely! They are just wonderful summertime foods.
Fried green tomatoe sandwiches at t Greenbrier in West Virginia. Awesome
👍👍
FINALLY! I found someone who makes them like my mama used to make them with flour instead of cornmeal! Except she would fry them in bacon grease -YUM! 😋
I'm from Indiana, my mother from Tennessee, these are an Indiana tradition too. Best tomatoes grow in Indiana. I'm in Michigan now, 😢these poor folks don't know what's good. I'm going to fry me some tonight ❤
Your comments have made me chuckle. Enjoy your fried green tomatoes tonight! Thank you so much for watching our video.
