About 15 minutes later I rinsed the eggplant ... shook them off a bit and then dipped them in the egg . They then went for a dip in the crouton crumbs and then in the foil lined pan . I gave the slices a light dusting of parmesean ( the kind in the shakey can ) and into the oven they went . I did nt check the time but it was maybe 10 - 15 minutes or until the croutons were golden brown .

Question: What may happen after you rinse the eggplant ?
Answer: I would stop myself from adding spices .I would add some spices .I would put the eggplant into the oven without any spices or breading .I would give the slices of eggplant a not - so - light dusting of Parmesan .
