Eggplant Parmesan or Parmigiana di Melanzane is a classic Italian dish, and for vegetarians, one of the most satisfying plates you could imagine. Usually offered as an appetizer, although in restaurants I will eat this as my main course, add a salad and warm crusty Italian bread you have a complete meal. As with many recipes there are a few tricks, details of preparation that are passed down from generation to generation. Eggplant Parmesan is a prime example of a very straightforward recipe but with variations ranging from a quick and simple Deli version to a plate worthy of gourmet fine dining. How does the home cook decide which techniques to use?
