*I used my Joseph Joseph Rocker Garlic Crusher which makes tiny round down bits of garlic; perfect for this salad!

My thoughts:
It must travel the real kickoff of eggplant flavor because the eggplants but about hither accept been lovely! I picked these 2 upward as well as didn't accept anything inward hear for them as well as thus promptly left them inward the refrigerator for a week. Oops! This is why I involve to halt amongst the impulse arrive at purchases! Luckily they were withal adept when I re-discovered them but I idea I'd improve brand something amongst them quickly. Since it is ane time once to a greater extent than super hot, I idea a salad was inward order. I roasted the eggplant (relatively chop-chop as well as without making the kitchen equally good hot) transforming the eggplant into something velvety smoothen as well as tossed it amongst a few other Italian-inspired ingredients. I used jarred carmine peppers because I genuinely similar the texture as well as flavor of them improve than homemade roasted bell peppers (I don't similar bell peppers!) but if you lot accept some home-roasted peppers, experience costless to pare as well as role them. I loved it. It form of reminded me of the marinated eggplant slices I similar to proceed Italian sandwiches but heartier as well as less oily. Perfect for serving amongst sandwiches, crab cakes (or crawfish cakes---recipe to come!) or fifty-fifty steak.

It was but equally delicious the adjacent twenty-four hr catamenia thus it could travel made it ahead of fourth dimension to convey to a picnic.
