Aubergine

Aubergine: Main Image

Preparation, Uses, & Tips

If the aubergine is young, the skin is edible. As the aubergine ages, the skin becomes bitter and may require peeling. The flesh discolors rapidly, so cut aubergine just before cooking. Slice aubergine, salt it, and let it “weep” for 20 minutes to remove any bitter flavour. Cube it and bake in a tomato sauce with onions, garlic, and fresh oregano.
