| Got two in my CSA basket, but don't know what to do with them other than frying...and we're trying to go easy on the frying this summer. Any ideas? |

Friend green tomatoes! The traditional recipes call for cornmeal and old bay seasonings. I prefer panko breadcrumbs and olive oil.
Slices tomatoes, dredge in flour, egg, and then bread crumbs. Saute/fry in olive oil until browned/crispy. Serve with sour cream, mayo with a little lemon mixed in, plain greek yogurt, yogurt/cucumber dip ..basically something cold and creamy to balance the acid/tang of the tomatoes. |

They go well in pork stew instead of tomatillos like in this

| We made gazpacho last night using green tomatoes - very tasty. Followed a recipe from Bon Appetit. |

You can make green tomato chutney -- chop them and then cook them down with onions, brown sugar and raisins.
If they have any read at all, put them in a paper bag to ripen up. |

| You can pickle them, just like cucumbers, if they're firm enough. |

| Good cooked in curry, stir fry, or pasta |

| I grill them with olive oil and salt. I usually grill vidalia also and serve them together. |
