Fried Green Tomatoes

 I planted ONE tomato plant in a pot some time ago and below you'll see the results.

Since I don't have a lot of space, any gardening I do is in a pot or something resembling a pot. 

The tomatoes weren't turning red fast enough for my liking so I decided to do fried green tomatoes. I haven't always been successful with these in that the crust won't adhere to the tomato. I consulted  my favorite choice of knowledge, YouTube to search out a recipe that might work. I found Smoking & Grilling With AB

It's been said that reheating  the tomatoes will only make them soggy. The tomatoes I had left over, I reheated inside a regular oven on 350 degrees for about 8-10 minutes. They were fine for my taste.

That's it***

Corn on the cob without the silk

As Seen On

by way of Smitty B

Smitty B sent me an e-mail about microwaving corn without the silk.  Naturally, I had to try it.  I tried out the Omelet in a  ziplock bag  that she sent me also.

Here's  the video from YOU TUBE if you'd like to watch it first, then my results.

I purchased one ear of corn for 75 cents just for this experiment.

I placed the one ear of corn with the shucks inside the microwave and set it for 4 minutes. I didn't have an Ove Glove, so I used oven mitts to place it on my cutting board.

I cut off the bottom of the corn.

Here is the bottom of the corn. I shook the ear of corn out in one shake.

It came out perfectly. No silk at all.

I don't know if it was the corn or the microwave but the corn was delicious. It was so sweet I didn't put anything on it.

THAT'S IT***
