[Nfb-krafters-korner] Pumpkin Flowers and more - WAS: Tomatoes

[Annette Carr]

I have not fried green tomatos, I will have to try them.  Yes, Eggplant is
very tasty this way.  We bread both eggplant and zucchini and bake them on a
pizza stone or baking sheet.  A little healthier because you are not using
oil.  I enjoy them both ways.

Has anyone ever had fried pumpkin flowers?  Zucchini and squash flowers can
be used as well.  My grandmother would shred the flowers with her fingers
and mix them in a batter.  The batter would be fried and you would have a
sort-of pancake which was spicier than a traditional pancake.  I've searched
the internet for a recipe like my grandmother's and all that I've come up
with is recipes that dip the whole flower in a batter and fry that.

sounds so good. I think maybe eggplant would be good like this, too?  Sounds
like it could work for eggplant.
My mom and dad always made fried tomatoes from tomatoes raised in dad's
summer gardens. I do not know if I ever ate one though.
I will have to try them. Lynda
