Place tomato slices on paper towels. Sprinkle both side of slices with salt. Let stand for 30 minutes. Pat dry with paper towels. In a shallow dish, place 1/4 cup flour. In a separate shallow dish, whisk together buttermilk and egg. In a third shallow dish, combine cornmeal, seasoned salt, and remaining 1/4 cup flour. Dredge tomatoes in flour, shaking off excess. In a large skillet, pour oil to a depth of 1/8" heat oil over medium heat. Cook tomatoes, in bathes for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown. Drain on a wire rack. Serve immediately.
