About Fried green tomato
Fried green tomatoes are a Southern U.S. culinary staple made from firm, unripe green tomatoes that are sliced, coated in seasoned cornmeal or breadcrumbs, and fried until golden and crispy. This dish embodies the rustic charm of Southern cooking, often served as an appetizer or side. While frying adds a satisfying crunch and richness, the nutritional profile depends on preparation. Green tomatoes themselves are low in calories and provide vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants that support overall health. However, frying adds significant fat and calories, especially if cooked in oil. For a lighter option, baking or air frying can reduce the oil content while preserving the flavor. Typically paired with sauces or dips, fried green tomatoes are a delightful treat with moderate nutritional value that can be enjoyed in balanced portions as part of a variety-filled diet.
