I am so excited to announce that Eckert’s homegrown vine-ripened tomatoes are now in the Belleville Country Store and St. Louis Farm Market!  My family absolutely loves to make and eat fried green tomatoes.  This recipe adds a sassy zing and has been passed down through the generations.  I defiantly recommend stopping by to pick up some of our delicious and fresh tomatoes and try this recipe out – your family is sure to love it!
