COOK IT RIGHT
Buy it right
Eggplant that’s in its prime will feel slightly firm and have shiny skin.
Store it right
If you ever have leftover cut eggplant, cover the cut surface with plastic wrap and store in the fridge for up to 2 days.
Cook it right
If you have the time, salting eggplant before cooking helps to draw out excess moisture, and season the eggplant from the inside out.
