How to cook:

Thickly slice your tomatoes to make 8 slices, 1/2 inch thick each.
pour buttermilk into a shallow bowl.
In another shallow bowl whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking soda, if using, cayenne, paprika, salt, and pepper to combine.
Heat several inches of oil in a deep fryer or Dutch oven to 350F. If using a skillet, heat about 1/4 inch oil in a large skillet until shimmering. Note: if using a skillet you'll have to add more oil as necessary.
Dunk the tomatoes in the buttermilk,
Then dredge in the cornmeal mixture to coat well.
Fry the slices, working in batches, until golden on one side, then flip and cook until golden on the other side. This should take about 2 minutes in the deep fryer, and perhaps a little longer in a skillet, depending on how hot your oil is.
Drain the tomatoes on paper towels and serve hot, with your favorite hot sauce, or my horseradish dipping sauce.

How to cook:

For the fried green tomatoes:
Cut the tomatoes into ¼” slices.
In one large mixing bowl whisk together the buttermilk, egg and hot sauce. In another medium mixing bowl whisk together the cornmeal and flour then season with salt and pepper.
Add the tomatoes to the buttermilk mixture and let sit for about 10 minutes.
Add enough oil to a large cast iron skillet to fill 1” up the side of the pan. Heat the oil to 375ºF (190ºC).
Working in batches, add tomatoes to the cornmeal batter and coat on both sides, pressing gently to adhere the cornmeal.
Shake excess batter off the tomatoes and add to the skillet, frying until golden brown on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes total.
Remove to a paper towel lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining tomatoes until all have been fried.
For the comeback sauce:
In a small bowl whisk together the mayonnaise, sriracha, ketchup, oil, onion, garlic, Worcestershire, mustard and pepper until combined.
Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. This sauce can be made up to 2 weeks in advance.
For serving:
Serve the tomatoes hot with the sauce for dipping.
