Hi Gina! I think this is my first time commenting. =) This looks really mouth-wateringly appetizing – bonus points for presentation. I’m making it ASAP. Winner!

Question: Were your eggplant layers crispy? They look pretty nicely crisp in the photos, but given my experience with the vegetable, it tends to be pretty mush… What gives?

hey kate,
i didn’t salt that one, but usually do if i’m going to be dehydrating the eggplant instead of roasting it.
another tip is to buy “male” eggplants– the indentation on the bottom of the fruit is more circular and shallow, while the female eggplant has a line-shaped indentation. the male eggplants are less bitter

This looks yummy! I have never cooked with eggplant before…do you go through the process of “salting” it to get out the bitterness? I never know, so I never bother…but I finally picked up an eggplant at the farmer’s market to try my hand in the kitch.
