Fried Yellow Squash

Heat one inch of vegetable oil until just before smoking. Soak squash in buttermilk to cover, at least 5 minutes. Dredge in cornmeal, flour, salt mixture. Fry in vegetable oil until golden, turn and fry until lightly golden on other side. Salt lightly as remove from oil and drain on paper towels This is delicious - also works for fried green tomatoes (cut green tomatoes at least 1/4" slices) If you like fried okra - batter should be 1 cup milk + 1 egg. Dredge in same mixture as above and salt as you do for squash and drain on paper towels.
