it is purple and shiny and i used to be scared to eat it. and it rhymes with 'schmeggflant'.
i accidentally ate some baba ghanouj the other day with no ill effects or anaphylactic shock. so last night during a 4th of july cookout, with a newfound sense of bravery, i had a slice of grilled eggplant with some basil, mozz and tomato. i KNOW, right?!
i think i have officially become an eggplant enthusiast. and we have some in the garden now that are almost ready to be picked. what should we make with it?
my new favorite after my trip!
