hollandaise sauce (I use Tyler Florence's recipe)

chopped parsley, for garnish

Equipment:

bowl

frying pan

pot

Cooking instruction summary:

Slice the green tomatoes slightly larger than 1/4 inch thick, and set up the flour, egg, and panko in individual bowls. Season both sides of each tomato slice with salt and pepper. Heat up a skillet over medium high heat, and in the meantime, bread your green tomato slices by starting in the flour, then dipping in the egg, and dipping in the panko. Make sure to shake the excess off during each step, that way the breading doesn't fall off later on. Once your pan is hot, add enough olive oil to coat the bottom of your skillet, and fry the tomatoes for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown.Time to poach the eggs. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, then reduce to a barely bubbling simmer. Crack the eggs into a large spoon, that way you can gently lower the eggs into the water.Poach each egg for exactly 2 minutes.

Food Trivia

Until well into the sixteenth century, bacon was a Middle English term used to refer to all pork in general.

Food Joke

During the wedding rehearsal, the groom approached the pastor with an unusual offer. "Look, I'll give you $100 if you'll change the wedding vows. When you get to me and the part where I'm to promise to 'love, honor and obey' and 'forsaking all others, be faithful to her forever,' I'd appreciate it if you'd just leave that part out." He passed the minister a $100 bill and walked away satisfied. It is now the day of the wedding, and the bride and groom have moved to that part of the ceremony where the vows are exchanged. When it comes time for the groom's vows, the pastor looks the young man in the eye and says: "Will you promise to prostrate yourself before her, obey her every command and wish, serve her breakfast in bed every morning of your life and swear eternally before God and your lovely wife that you will not ever even look at another woman, as long as you both shall live?" The groom gulped and looked around, and said in a tiny voice, "Yes." The groom leaned toward the pastor and hissed, "I thought we had a deal." The pastor put the $100 bill into his hand and whispered back, "She made me a much better offer."
