FRIED GREEN TOMATO BATTER This batter mix was developed after years of serving fried green tomatoes at the WhistleStop Cafe. We received so many compliments and people were always asking for the recipe. Now you can make authentic fried green tomatoes at home…and a lot of other things. You can use the batter on green tomatoes, onions, squash, zucchini, eggplant, mushrooms, green beans, shrimp and more. Try frying pickles for a fun twist. For thinner batter add slightly more water (to taste) and for thicker batter use less water. Folks from all over have called with their own variation such as adding grated parmesan or their favorite spice. The following are some good ways to use this batter and fried green tomatoes. *Fried Dill Pickles Drain the juice off of sliced pickles and pat dry. Batter according to directions and cook in a skillet with 1-2 inches of hot grease. Place on paper towels to remove excess fat. *Green Tomatoes with Feta Cheese Select small firm green tomatoes. Prepare according to directions. After cooking, place on a paper towel to drain excess fat. Sprinkle each (while hot) with crumbled feta cheese. Serve warm. *Green Tomato Parmesan Substitute eggplant with fried green tomatoes in your favorite parmesan recipe. *Bacon Lettuce and Green Tomatoes Make a BLT using Fried Green Tomatoes. We like it with lightly toasted sourdough bread. *Tomatoes and Gravy Serve with your favorite sawmill gravy. If you need a good recipe for sawmill gravy, here’s one of ours. . . . Blend 1½ cup milk, 1 cup water & ½ cup self rising flour until smooth. Pour 1/4 cup bacon or sausage drippings into 8" to 10" skillet. Heat pan drippings, then stir in blended mixture stirring until thick. Add salt and pepper to taste. *Corn Dogs Place a wooden skewer in the center of the hotdog, running it through more than half way. Using the Fried Green Tomato batter, coat each hot dog generously with a thicker batter. Fry until golden brown.
