  1. what i do with this is grill up fine pieces of eggplant and zucchini and onion and garlic and then fill it up onto toasted bread with mayo and provolone and calabrian pepper. if you only toast the outside of the bread it helps keep everying inside but it's worth scooping everything back up to eat. the other thing i do is caramelize all the onion, cook up the zzuchini and eggplant and use it as a base for ramen. add in some buldak and some parm and i'm a happy gal. tasty but a lot less work.

  2. This reminds me of a dish we made at a restaurant I worked at. It was a vegetable sauce with a little bit of tomato. It had zucchini, mushrooms, eggplant, onions, peppers etc. All sauteed with hearbs and garlic. Then we layered the veggies with pasta and cheese and baked it like a lasagna. We also offered a version where it was layered with spaghetti squash for a pasta free version. We were lucky because the chef/owner's mother had a great vegetable garden. It's hard not to be jealous of Claire's garden … just beautiful.

  3. I had my mom buy me a Pullman pan from E Dehillerin when she went to France earlier this year! I sent her b/c of you and you talking about it during your pastry stuff. She also bought me a plastic scraper…but it was my birthday and she asked what I wanted as a gift since she was going to be gone on my actual birthday, lol.

  4. "oh i'll come back the next day and it's quadrupled in size" girl been there, zucchini are stealthy monsters. also roosters. my neighbor has some hens illegally and was cautiously curious how i received them as we share the most fence. i said we're cool as long as you don't get roosters because the noise. a hen laying a big egg every few weeks nbd, hearing a rooster going off on the daily no maam, not in suburbia.
