Just a quick note on Eggplant

A vendor at our market sells the tinest, most beautiful eggplant YOU HAVE EVER SEEN. They are green, white and deep purple and TASTE LIKE SOMETHING, that's right I said TASTE LIKE SOMETHING.

Dad grilled some up on his Midwest excursion (more to come on this), and they were so delightful, I repeated myself this week. We had them for dinner last night, and I ate the leftovers off of plastic wrap, cold, for lunch today. So delightful.

Grilled Eggplant Fit for Gods
3 firm, small (no more than 1 inch thick) eggplants
Olive oil
Salt & Pepper

Wash eggplants, slice thinly at a diagonal. Toss in bowl with olive oil, salt and pepper. Grill until charred and soft. Toss again in olive oil, serve.

SIMPLY AND DELICIOUS. Just the way we like it.

  1. Simple, delicious, sweet. I'd probably eat my share of these with my fingers before they even got to the table. And cripes, eggplants that taste like something! What more could we ask for?
