The Egg Plant

One of the most delicate vegetables
we have is the egg plant. 1t bears this
curious name because it is shaped like
an egg, some say, and others claim be.
cause it is as full of meat as an egg.
1t is more popular abroad than here
and French and Italian cooks prepare
it for the table by frying, baking and
stewing it and even add it to their
soups. We only fry it or stuff and
bake it.
To prepare it for frying: First cut
the vegetable into slices about half an
inch thick and remove the purple riud
with a sharp pointed knife. Put the
slices in deep bowl and cover with
salted water. let stand over night or at
least several hours.
Make batter of egg and milk: dip
the slices in this and then in bread
crumbs. Fry in a basket with plenty
of hot fat Or, roll the slices in flour
only and brown them in butter. Season
with salt and pepper and serve very
hot. The flavor is very like that of
fried oysters.
The French call this delicate veg
etable auberigne and this is the name
usually accorded il in cookery books.
\ very good recipe from French cook
directs that the slices of the egg plant
should soak in a marinade made with
salt. pepper, vinegar and OIL for several
hours. Then place them in wire
broiler and cook until each slice is deli.
cately Drowned and very tender. Gar

nish with little parsley and dress
with melted butter.
Small egg plants cook more quickly
and have better flavor than large
ones. They are usually chosen for
baking. Cut off cap and scoop out the
pulp with a pointed spoon, but leave a
quarter of an inch against the skin
