Eggplant

This veggie has a unique texture and lends itself well to a variety of flavours 

Storage 

Eggplant is actually best stored at room temperature, and eaten within a day or two. If you aren’t cooking it right away, wrap it in a paper towel, place it in an open bag and store it in your fridge for up to one week.

Cooking Tips 

With eggplant, it’s all about high heat. Cube or halve the eggplants lengthwise, toss them with olive oil and salt and either grill or roast at 400 degrees until creamy soft on the inside and a deep golden brown on the outside. While still warm toss it with a bright dressing. Turn roasted or grilled eggplant into a dip like baba ganoush or eggplant caviar. Make an eggplant tomato sauce for pasta or polenta, an eggplant sandwich/pita, an eggplant curry, or serve it over a lentil salad. And of course there's the traditional eggplant parmasan
