Every summer needs a pasta, and in this summer pasta, it’s all about the eggplant. It’s like caponata meets eggplant parm: roasted eggplant, garlic, burst tomatoes, cheesy breadcrumbs, the works. This is not necessarily a quick pasta recipe (because almost nothing involving eggplant is “quick”) but that’s okay. The good news is this sauce is easy to scale up or down, and is something you can keep around to put on toast, use as a condiment, or dab on eggs. A note: Roasting eggplant isn’t hard, but it can be inconsistent-more so than any other vegetable maybe-but follow your instincts and be patient here. Well-roasted eggplant is the single most important, make-or-break part of this recipe.

The longer this video goes on, the more it makes me feel like I've just met with Alison around mid day on a hungover, rainy Sunday and we're just talking about all the goss while casually cooking some wholesome pasta. Just missing a glass of red wine and a couple of Advil. xxxx

Yeah. We’re friends who haven’t met. Doesn’t make any difference that we haven’t met. Yeah. We live in different places -and for that reason we haven’t met yet. But yes. Girl. You’re welcome over for that Sunday - or any day. Real people - great food. Door’s open… 😊

Yes- that flavor is tannins. Love tannins!! (Why do people salt and drain the water from eggplant in order to get rid of ”the bitter?” That’s the FLAVOR!” DON’T GET RID OF IT, right Alison? No, they are not hybridized to alter the flavor - - it’s just that food trends/ fashions change. I’ve made my eggplant without skinning or using the “salting and draining” technique for 40 years because it brings out the best in eggplant. It always has.

@syrinx114 25 күн бұрын

If the pasta itself is too salty, that can be balanced out by a sauce that is intentionally slightly undersalted. Which is why I don’t understand why a cup and a half of excessively salted pasta water was added to the dish. Regular unsalted water works just as well as the pasta water in making a sauce. The starchiness of the pasta water barely makes a difference.

@josieannecameron1383 Ай бұрын
