Southern Fried Green Tomatoes

Make-Ahead and Storage Tips

• Make ahead: Breaded (uncooked) tomato slices can be refrigerated for up to 2 hours before frying. Keep covered and chilled.
• Leftovers: Store any cooled fried tomatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• Reheat: Use an air fryer or oven at 375°F for 8–10 minutes to re-crisp (avoid microwaving, which softens the crust).

Final Note

Whether you’re enjoying them for the first time or rekindling a childhood memory, one thing’s for sure: once you’ve tried them, you’ll want to make them again and again.
