I was raised by an Italian-American mother who, in the 1970s, grew her own basil (because she couldn’t find any in the local grocery stores), zucchini (for those delicious flowers), and tomatoes (because the ones in the store tasted like “a potato”). My mom taught us to love all kinds of food and revere high-quality ingredients. I am now trying to follow in my mother’s footsteps and am on a mission to help my daughters become adventurous eaters who have a healthy respect for seasonal food raised locally. My daughters and I grow vegetables and go to the farmers’ market. We also love to shop at Piedmont Grocery and Trader Joe’s. When I’m not hanging out with my daughters or cooking, I like to contribute to cookbooks (including Williams-Sonoma’s Food Made Fast and Foods of the World series), work as an editor, and write about food for \u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites\u003c/strong> and \u003cstrong>Denise's Kitchen\u003c/strong>.

One of my favorite dishes I ate there, and one of the best things I’ve put in my mouth in a while, was a pureed dip of smoky eggplant, fava bean, and feta that was topped with \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Za%27atar\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">za’atar\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strained_yogurt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lebni\u003c/a> and served with grilled flatbread. It was heaven.

Some farmers sell their unripe tomatoes specifically for frying by the Southern-born or Southern-inclined among us; ask your favorite vendor if he or she might be able to supply you. If you're growing tomatoes in your backyard, on your fire escape, or in a community garden, then you've got a built-in supply of underripe specimens. This recipe can come in particularly handy if you're growing in \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/KarlTheFog\">Karl the Fog\u003c/a>'s backyard, a.k.a the chilly, foggy, close-to-the-ocean western side of San Francisco, where green tomatoes may be all you get, even if you wait and water til Halloween. Look for tomatoes that are full-sized, firm, and pale green, with no pink or red spots. They should have a crisp, almost apple-y texture and a pleasantly tart taste. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once you've acquired your tomatoes, it's full parm ahead. The lighter, juicier texture of green tomatoes means they're better simply dusted with cayenne-spiked cornmeal and fried up Southern-style until golden brown.

Too slimy, they shudder, when it's overcooked. Too rubbery, they sneer, when undercooked. Tasteless, they say, like chewing fiber-board. So alluring when whole, but so ugly--boiled dust bunnies! slugs!--on the plate. Bitter, spongy, and \u003cem>such\u003c/em> a diva: as one friend sighed, \"It's so high maintenance. The things you have to do it to make it edible just seem like more work than necessary for what you get in the end.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Personally, I agree with none of these statements, except for the caveat against undercooking, since it's very true that eggplant that's too close to raw will have all the textural appeal of foam rubber. But who am I to argue with deep-seated vegetable revulsion? It only pains me that, as a result, you've been depriving yourself of one of the great comfort foods of life: gooey, cheesy, tomato-sticky eggplant parmesan. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until now, when I bring you its divine substitute, green tomato parm. \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cem>Chief Wiggum:\u003c/em> \"Hey, what you packing, Simpson?\"\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Homer:\u003c/em> “Just my lunch.

If you're growing tomatoes in your backyard, on your fire escape, or in a community garden, then you've got a built-in supply of underripe specimens.

They should have a crisp, almost apple-y texture and a pleasantly tart taste. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once you've acquired your tomatoes, it's full parm ahead. The lighter, juicier texture of green tomatoes means they're better simply dusted with cayenne-spiked cornmeal and fried up Southern-style until golden brown. Layer with tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and fresh basil leaves. Bake until gooey and molten. Remove from oven, let cool and settle for a few minutes to prevent over-eager tongue-burning, and serve.

Mine is my girl, Michele, who I've known since the first grade, whose mom was my CCD teacher, and who recently stood next to me as my maid of honor. My brother's eggplant parm connect is Corinne, who he's known since the second grade, whose house he goes to every Christmas for their massive dessert spread featuring about a dozen different pies and cakes, and who will be a bridesmaid at his wedding next October. I know, the parallels are frightening. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In any case, it happened that my brother left behind his container of Corinne's eggplant parm.

Sorry Shell, I love you and all, and no disrespect, but Corinne's square of eggplant parm magic was just that. \u003cem>Magical\u003c/em>. It was like the pinnacle of eggplant parm tastiness.

Was it something she made all the time or just special occasions? Does it take a long time to make? What kind of mozzarella did she use?!\u003c/em> It was astoundingly creamy and seemed to just melt into almost a sauce. I had so many questions. \u003cem>Did she use the big round-bottomed Italian eggplant, or the regular long ones? Did she \"sweat\" her eggplant before breading?\u003c/em> Ok, clearly I was obsessed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To my utter delight, Corinne was happy to share her family recipe! As it turns out, there are no crazy secrets to it. Except maybe lots of love and some time to devote to it. Interestingly, she says that between her mom, her sisters and herself, they all make it a little bit different. Corinne prefers thin slices of eggplant (as do I), while her sister prefers thicker slices. Corinne likes to make it in a square pan, her mom likes using a round one. Mom usually makes it for all holidays, but she likes it every now and again as a good comfort meal. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/10/IMG_9965.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/10/IMG_9965.jpg\" alt=\"Fried Eggplant\" title=\"Fried Eggplant\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17845\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Fried Eggplant\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I gave the recipe a go – to be honest, it didn't come out as good as Corinne's, but I'm hoping I'll get better with practice. Here's what I learned:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1.\t\u003cstrong>Apple-bottom eggplant\u003c/strong> works best because the bigger bottoms are good for the bottom layers.\u003cbr>\n2.\t\u003cstrong>No need to \"sweat\" the eggplant\u003c/strong>, Corinne doesn't do it, nor does her mama.\u003cbr>\n3.\t\u003cstrong>Slice the eggplant thin\u003c/strong> (a bit under ¼\" thick)\u003cbr>\n4.\tUse \u003cstrong>whole milk mozzarella\u003c/strong> for the creamy results you'll want -- no one said this was a healthy dish! A note on the mozz: Corinne recommended the brand \u003cstrong>Polly-O\u003c/strong> for best results. It's a common brand on the East coast, but I haven't been able to find it in SF. She warned against using Sorrento, saying that for some reason, it doesn't work as well.\u003cbr>\n5.\t\u003cstrong>Barilla Three Cheese Tomato Sauce\u003c/strong> is recommended for the sauce. A great choice if you don't have time to make your own \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2010/09/21/tomatoes-an-addiction-early-girl-tomato-sauce/\">tomato sauce\u003c/a> from scratch.\u003cbr>\n6.\t\u003cstrong>Make sure oil is hot\u003c/strong> in skillet before putting eggplant in -- they'll get too soggy if it's not hot enough.

Corinne prefers thin slices of eggplant (as do I), while her sister prefers thicker slices. Corinne likes to make it in a square pan, her mom likes using a round one.

She warned against using Sorrento, saying that for some reason, it doesn't work as well.\u003cbr>\n5.\t\u003cstrong>Barilla Three Cheese Tomato Sauce\u003c/strong> is recommended for the sauce.

Usually, though, there's a very real change in texture or flavor, nutrition or shelf-life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two simple techniques increasingly omitted from recipes now are salting eggplant and browning butter. Neither are absolutely necessary. Both, however, are worth doing every once in a while to remind yourself just what amazing flavors you can create in the kitchen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>BROWNED BUTTER\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/09/brown_butter3.jpg\" alt=\"brown butter\" title=\"brown butter\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6789\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Simmering whole butter until all its water bubbles off and its protein solids separate accomplishes several key improvements. It allows the butter to sit at (tropical) room temperature much longer without turning rancid. It significantly increases the butter's smoke point to allow high-heat cooking. And it transforms the milks sweet flavor, adding deep, nutty, caramel tones. Indians call it \u003cem>ghee\u003c/em>, while the French call it \u003cem>beurre noisette\u003c/em>, or hazelnut butter for its rich color and flavor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You need just five or ten minutes to make browned butter. Melt good-quality, unsalted butter in a small, heavy pan over medium heat. (A lighter colored pan will allow you to judge more easily the color of the butter as it cooks.) Continue cooking it through the foamy bubbling stage, while all the water evaporates off. Reduce the heat if you want to give yourself some extra buffer time, especially if this is your first time browning butter. As the bubbles subside, swirl the pan occasionally and keep an extra close eye on the butter. The protein solids will sink to the bottom. When they turn light brown, transfer the hot butter immediately to a heat-proof bowl. Be sure not to scorch the butter, as blackened protein will taste sharply acrid, not pleasantly nutty. It will darken a little more as it cools. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For frying or long storage, be sure to separate the milk solids: skim off any remaining foam and spoon or pour off the oil while still liquid, leaving behind the darkened protein at the bottom of the bowl.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Browned butter can be used while still melted to saute or to garnish. It's excellent for vegetables like asparagus, broccoli, and green beans. If you're trying to use less butter, deepening its flavor will accentuate the effect from smaller amounts. For a super simple yet elegant entree, sear chicken breast, pork chops, or fish fillets in browned butter and then serve with fresh lemon wedges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let browned butter solidify and substitute it in baked recipes for extra delicate cookies and cakes. (Remember that less water means less gluten development in flour, so be sure to allow for some trial and error as you figure out the fulcrum point between flavor and structure.) Use it in rice pilaf to serve with full-flavored stews and roasts. Or simply offer it at the table in your regular butter dish and spread it on crusty bread or flaky biscuits for a flavor epiphany.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SALTING EGGPLANT\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/09/brown_eggplant.jpg\" alt=\"brown eggplant\" title=\"brown eggplant\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6784\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With ever smaller, younger and fresher vegetables making their way to our markets in the past decades, old rules have lost much of their imperative. Peeling, trimming, salting -- these were techniques required when vegetables were allowed to mature completely on the plant, transported long distances without the benefit of refrigeration, and served within days not weeks of harvest. Tender carrots no longer require peeling. Young celery stalks can be cooked with leaves. And most eggplants now, especially the narrow Asian varieties, are fine going straight from the cutting board the pan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Occasionally, though, salting eggplant is critical and will remind you just why this vegetable has been embraced in classic dishes around the world. It's a hassle, but the extra step draws out bitter juices in older vegetables, whether those missed in the back corner of your garden or forgotten in the bottom of your refrigerator. More importantly, salting alters the cell structure of the vegetable's flesh, creating that famous silken texture while preventing excess absorption of oil.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To salt eggplant, halve, dice or slice it as needed. Sprinkle generous with kosher salt and set aside in a bowl or colander. To encourage the purging of juices, weight the eggplant. (The most effective way is to fill a zip bag with water and plop it on top of the pieces. The age-old method is a flat plate topped with a rock.) Leave the eggplant for 30 to 60 minutes. When you return and peek into the bowl, you'll see a surprising amount of dark brown liquid at the bottom. Rinse the eggplant quickly in cool water, drain well and then dry it by wringing in a clean cloth or patting with paper towels. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salting eggplant will noticeably improve recipes that call for stuffing eggplant halves or rolling thin slices around a filling. It's also a good technique for dishes where keeping its shape is important, such as stews, curries, ratatouille, or parmigiana. If you're deep-frying eggplant, salting is essential for preventing greasiness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And what if you're making baba ganoush or using tiny, little adolescent eggplants? Nope, no one will care or notice if you skip the salting. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cooking is an investment of time and money, energy and love. Like all decisions, judging the costs requires knowing the benefits. And then choosing wisely. \u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Two simple techniques increasingly omitted from recipes now are salting eggplant and browning butter. Neither are absolutely necessary.

For the most flavor with the shortest amount of time in the kitchen, especially when you've splurged or gone out of your way to buy good ingredients, it's a delicate balance between paying attention to the details and just trying to get dinner on the table.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We've all done it -- cooked tomatoes with their peels and seeds, served pureed soup unstrained, fried the potatoes just once, not twice. It's healthier, right?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a cook, I embrace shortcuts. But as a cooking teacher, I always try to explain to my classes why, over the centuries and millennia, certain techniques have developed. Sometimes it's cultural. Usually, though, there's a very real change in texture or flavor, nutrition or shelf-life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two simple techniques increasingly omitted from recipes now are salting eggplant and browning butter.

It allows the butter to sit at (tropical) room temperature much longer without turning rancid. It significantly increases the butter's smoke point to allow high-heat cooking. And it transforms the milks sweet flavor, adding deep, nutty, caramel tones. Indians call it \u003cem>ghee\u003c/em>, while the French call it \u003cem>beurre noisette\u003c/em>, or hazelnut butter for its rich color and flavor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You need just five or ten minutes to make browned butter. Melt good-quality, unsalted butter in a small, heavy pan over medium heat. (A lighter colored pan will allow you to judge more easily the color of the butter as it cooks.) Continue cooking it through the foamy bubbling stage, while all the water evaporates off. Reduce the heat if you want to give yourself some extra buffer time, especially if this is your first time browning butter. As the bubbles subside, swirl the pan occasionally and keep an extra close eye on the butter. The protein solids will sink to the bottom. When they turn light brown, transfer the hot butter immediately to a heat-proof bowl. Be sure not to scorch the butter, as blackened protein will taste sharply acrid, not pleasantly nutty. It will darken a little more as it cools. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For frying or long storage, be sure to separate the milk solids: skim off any remaining foam and spoon or pour off the oil while still liquid, leaving behind the darkened protein at the bottom of the bowl.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Browned butter can be used while still melted to saute or to garnish. It's excellent for vegetables like asparagus, broccoli, and green beans. If you're trying to use less butter, deepening its flavor will accentuate the effect from smaller amounts. For a super simple yet elegant entree, sear chicken breast, pork chops, or fish fillets in browned butter and then serve with fresh lemon wedges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let browned butter solidify and substitute it in baked recipes for extra delicate cookies and cakes. (Remember that less water means less gluten development in flour, so be sure to allow for some trial and error as you figure out the fulcrum point between flavor and structure.) Use it in rice pilaf to serve with full-flavored stews and roasts. Or simply offer it at the table in your regular butter dish and spread it on crusty bread or flaky biscuits for a flavor epiphany.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SALTING EGGPLANT\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/09/brown_eggplant.jpg\" alt=\"brown eggplant\" title=\"brown eggplant\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6784\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With ever smaller, younger and fresher vegetables making their way to our markets in the past decades, old rules have lost much of their imperative. Peeling, trimming, salting -- these were techniques required when vegetables were allowed to mature completely on the plant, transported long distances without the benefit of refrigeration, and served within days not weeks of harvest. Tender carrots no longer require peeling. Young celery stalks can be cooked with leaves. And most eggplants now, especially the narrow Asian varieties, are fine going straight from the cutting board the pan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Occasionally, though, salting eggplant is critical and will remind you just why this vegetable has been embraced in classic dishes around the world. It's a hassle, but the extra step draws out bitter juices in older vegetables, whether those missed in the back corner of your garden or forgotten in the bottom of your refrigerator. More importantly, salting alters the cell structure of the vegetable's flesh, creating that famous silken texture while preventing excess absorption of oil.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To salt eggplant, halve, dice or slice it as needed. Sprinkle generous with kosher salt and set aside in a bowl or colander. To encourage the purging of juices, weight the eggplant. (The most effective way is to fill a zip bag with water and plop it on top of the pieces. The age-old method is a flat plate topped with a rock.) Leave the eggplant for 30 to 60 minutes. When you return and peek into the bowl, you'll see a surprising amount of dark brown liquid at the bottom. Rinse the eggplant quickly in cool water, drain well and then dry it by wringing in a clean cloth or patting with paper towels. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salting eggplant will noticeably improve recipes that call for stuffing eggplant halves or rolling thin slices around a filling. It's also a good technique for dishes where keeping its shape is important, such as stews, curries, ratatouille, or parmigiana. If you're deep-frying eggplant, salting is essential for preventing greasiness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And what if you're making baba ganoush or using tiny, little adolescent eggplants? Nope, no one will care or notice if you skip the salting. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cooking is an investment of time and money, energy and love. Like all decisions, judging the costs requires knowing the benefits. And then choosing wisely. \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/bayareabites/6783/taking-time-in-the-kitchen-down-to-the-brown","authors":["5018"],"categories":["bayareabites_2695","bayareabites_12"],"tags":["bayareabites_1288","bayareabites_569","bayareabites_2292","bayareabites_2694","bayareabites_199"],"label":"bayareabites"},"bayareabites_5146":{"type":"posts","id":"bayareabites_5146","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"bayareabites","id":"5146","score":null,"sort":[1247151625000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"stuffed-globe-squash-and-eggplant","title":"Stuffed Globe Squash and Eggplant","publishDate":1247151625,"format":"aside","headTitle":"Bay Area Bites | KQED Food","labelTerm":{"site":"bayareabites"},"content":"\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2009/07/stuffed-squash-and-eggplant.jpg\" alt=\"stuffed squash and eggplant\" title=\"stuffed squash and eggplant\" width=\"400\" height=\"534\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5161\">\u003cbr>\nI love buying fruits and vegetables that look a little different than the norm.
