My daughter told me that she made an eggplant lasagna and she didn't like it. I told her it is because you have not prepared the best recipe that this lady makes! Excellent. Thanks for sharing!

Looks delicious! Salting the eggplant removes the water, but also the bitterness. Best to lay them on paper towel while salting so the towels absorb the bitter water.

[@seycas118]

Thanks for the tip!

I tried it yesterday and it. was. AMAZING! I honestly did not expect it to be so good. And your pasta sauce recipe with carrots is a game changer! I couldn’t stop eating it right out of the pan! Everyone loved it! Finally, vegetarian comfort food!

[@shifrabaila4074]

By the way, the main reason (as I have been told) for salting the eggplant is so to remove the bitter after taste that you can get with cooked eggplant. Also, after salting, do not leave it lying flat, by place it in a colander place over a bowl to catch the liquid, and with this amount of eggplant the amount of liquid that is drained from the eggplant can be quite a lot.

[@larrygrimes824]

I salt the eggplant too then rinse it off and pat dry before proceeding.

[@denisehenry1577]

Oh, if that is!!! So much for alchemy

[@timo8032]

@@larrygrimes824 why would you rinse of the salt with water, the sole purpose of salting is removing the water from it, ure just fucking it up again lol 🤣.

[@larrygrimes824]

@@timo8032 The salt pulls the bitterness out of the egg plant and it accumulates on the surface. I rinse it off with water then pat it dry before using.

I don't think gluten is good for anyone, it's just some peoples bodies rebel more than others. I think gluten is responsible for a lot of obesity. bread is just a cheap filler.

[@paganlark7037]

the liquid that comes out of the eggplant after you salt it is bitter--try tasting it--and by drawing it out and dabbing it off, it makes the eggplant have less bitter flavors. Just fyi.

[@mariathiessen2194]

[@denisehenry1577]

Implication!? Bitter: harsh

[@cucacintron7102]

That is the real reason you salt the eggplant and let it stand for 15-20 mins. or until it "sweats". To get the bitterness out.

[@cucacintron7102]

Some "connoisseurs" claim it's no longer necessary to salt and let eggplant sweat because new breeds of the plant are no longer bitter. I don't bet on that and always salt it, let sweat and rinse off.
