Looks good--bookmarking it IF I can ever get my wife (and hopefully kids and/or guests) to eat eggplant. I love it, especially grilled after salting and let it sit, brush with EVOO, and then grill til it shows brown--not TOO much!

Looks and sounds great, thanks for posting it. I never liked eggplant until a trip to Italy years ago where I had lasagna made with thin sliced of grilled eggplant used in place of pasta. It was very good.

Popsicle Toes is great. He did a bunch of clever light jazz...
