Chef's Notes
San Marzano tomatoes are the undisputed royalty of the tomato world. Do not substitute them unless you want a peasant rebellion at your dinner table.
Pro Tip
Salting the eggplant is non-negotiable! It removes excess water so your crust stays crunchy instead of turning into a soggy sponge.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Skipping the paper towel drying phase after salting means your breading will instantly slide off the wet eggplant like a wet jacket on a greasy slide, leaving you with naked vegetables.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I asked the chef for extra eggplant, and he gave me a lecture on geometry instead of more dinner.
The Culinary Science
Osmosis is at play when you salt the eggplant. The salt draws out moisture via high osmotic pressure, simultaneously washing away bitter compounds trapped in the flesh.
