Fried green tomatoes

 I do my green tomatoes a couple ways when I can going to freeze them... 


I cut wash, dry and cut them like I was going to fry them right then.


choices are


flour then egg(or buttermilk) then bread crumbs 

or

flour then egg (or buttermilk) then cracker crumbs

or 

flour then egg(or buttermilk) then cornmeal 

or

flour then egg(or buttermilk) then bread crumbs

or 

corn starch then egg (or buttermilk) then corn starch 


If I am eating them fresh I would do any of the above or use Whistle Stop Green tomatoes batter....

Freezing them ... I stop before I do the egg or buttermilk.Freeze them on a rack (like for cooling cookies or a cake)and cookie sheet. and then  bag them after they are frozen solid so I can pull out how ever many I want at a time.  Sometimes I just do the first step of cornstarch freeze and then do a mixture of cornstarch and flour with no egg or buttermilk. Depends on who is in the house and how heavy coating we want to eat.

    1. makes them gummy and soggy. I am going to try the air fryer when my bushel comes in and see how that does. I will let you know how it goes.
