ok my question...

Green tomatoes are just un-ripened tomatoes, right?

My question is.. you don't have to drain them like ripened tomatoes, right??? Just cut and go??

I know this might sound silly.. but you are dealing with a New Englander who only has tomatoes when they are ripe and juicy..

Green tomatoes are unripe tomatoes........I just slice and fry. No need to drain them.

How did the recipe turn out Tessa?
