Ingredients

Scale

  • 3 green tomatoes (sliced)
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • Lettuce
  • 12 slices high-quality white bread
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
  • 2 teaspoons pickle juice
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons grated horseradish

Instructions

  1. Slice green tomatoes into thick rounds.
  2. Whisk milk and egg in one bowl; in another bowl, mix cornmeal, flour, salt, black pepper, cayenne spice, and sugar.
