About Fried green tomatoes
Fried green tomatoes are a Southern U.S. comfort food known for their tangy flavor and crispy texture. Made from firm, unripened green tomatoes, the slices are dipped in a seasoned batter or breadcrumb mixture and fried until golden. While recipes often include buttermilk, cornmeal, and flour in the coating, variations may integrate spices for added depth. Green tomatoes are rich in vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants, offering nutritional benefits. However, frying can increase the calorie and fat content, especially if deep-fried or prepared with heavier oils. Pairing them with lighter accompaniments like fresh greens or using an air fryer can make the dish more health-conscious. Though traditionally served as an appetizer or side, fried green tomatoes are a beloved representation of Southern cuisine, blending simplicity with bold flavors.
