Sprinkle both sides lightly with salt and let sit for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture. Pat dry with paper towels. <strong>Set Up Dredging Station: <\/strong>Bowl 1: <strong>Flour<\/strong>, with a pinch of salt and pepper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bowl 2: <strong>Eggs<\/strong> whisked with <strong>buttermilk<\/strong>.

Don\u2019t overcrowd the pan to keep the oil temperature steady. For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free flour and cornmeal only.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ingredients: Instructions: Prep Tomatoes:Slice tomatoes into 1\/4-inch thick rounds.
