One of My All-time Summer Favorites

If you can guess what it is.
These are a Southern dish, but originated in the Midwest and northeast, possibly linked to the cuisine of Jewish immigrants. A recipe appears in the 1889 addition of “Aunt Babette's Cook Book” and “The International Jewish Cookbook” from 1919.

No idea but once you tell us what it is I am going to have to try to make it, it looks scrummy!

Some kind of fruit galette? I don’t know. Looks good though

@judithdeacon @kaylynn2150 @gardencat @casablanca @seattlite @santina ~ Good guesses, but it is a fried green tomato. Of course I put away more than this one slice.

@skipt07 Aha, I have heard of that but never knew what it looked like until now! Bon apetit!

@judithdeacon~ Slice a green tomato like you would a red one to eat. Cover with flour and cook them in a skillet with butter for flavor and a little olive oil to keep them from burning. Fry on one side until brown, flip them and fry until tender. Add salt and pepper to to taste. They have their own flavor. Like a lot of foods, some will like them and others won't.
