Suggest a better descriptionWash and slice tomatoes very thinly. Cut slices into quarters. (I have not cut them this small, and it still comes out great. I cut it just like I would an apple for a pie). Place tomatoes in a colander to drain for 30 minutes. Fit pastry into pie pan. Mix sugar, flour, lemon rind, salt, cinnamon and ginger. Sprinkle 1/4 of mixture over bottom of pastry-lined pie pan. Add tomatoes in layers, packing firmly. Sprinkle each layer with sugar mixture and part of raisins. Continue until all are used, ending with sugar mixture. Dot with butter. Sprinkle lemon juice over top. Brush edge of lower crust with water. Have pastry rolled for upper crust, cut design for steam vents. Lay on top of pie, seal edges, trim, turn under. Let rest for 10 minutes, and flute edge. Bake in a hot oven (450 F.) for 15 minutes. (Use a cookie sheet under the pie pan to save the juice from getting your oven a mess). Reduce heat to 325 F. (moderately slow) and continue baking for 40 to 50 minutes or until tomatoes are done. Cool on cake rack 3 to 4 hours before serving. (I serve this with vanilla ice cream). The book that the Green Fried Tomatoes and many other recipes come from are in the back of the book" Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe" and the author is Fannie Flagg. It is a wonderful novel, and even if you have seen the movie, the book is much more in detail and lots better. The recipes are great. I shall post some of them soon.
