KY Derby Dish: Cornmeal Fried Green Tomatoes

04/27/2021

by: Melissa Dowling

Cornfried Green Tomatoes

Ever since we launched Cheers@Home a few months ago (if you haven’t seen it yet, check out the Summer 2021 edition), we’ve been paying more attention to food recipes. The folks at Honey Salt in Las Vegas submitted this one for Cornmeal Fried Green Tomatoes for the 2021 Kentucky Derby.

Apparently, it’s a favorite of restaurant owner and Vegas socialite, Elizabeth Blau. We’ll drink to that—with a Ginger Peach Julep that Honey Salt designed to go with the Cornmeal Fried Green Tomatoes. Cheers!
