Chef's Notes
Do not skip salting the eggplant unless you enjoy chewing on soggy, bitter sponges. Drawing out that water is the secret weapon of Mediterranean cooking.
Pro Tip
When whisking warm milk into your roux, pour slowly and whisk like your culinary reputation depends on it—because it does.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Rushing the cooling phase before adding the egg white or egg yolks, resulting in scrambled eggs swimming awkwardly in your sauce.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
They say this recipe serves eight, but in this kingdom, we know it only serves one hungry King and seven very disappointed peasants.
The Culinary Science
Salting eggplant triggers osmosis, drawing out water molecules trapped in the cellular spongy tissue and taking bitter chemical compounds called solanine right along with them.
