Steps:
- Arrange the eggplant slices on several baking sheets and sprinkle generously all over with kosher salt. Set aside to let the bitter juices weep from the eggplant, about 1 hour.
- Transfer the eggplant to a colander in the sink, and rinse well under cold running water. Transfer eggplant to a work surface and blot very dry with paper towels.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, breadcrumbs, oregano, thyme, and season with pepper.
- Place the flour in a medium lipped plate or bowl. In another medium bowl, whisk the egg and milk together. Dredge an eggplant slice in the flour, then dip it in the egg, and finally dredge it in the breadcrumb mixture. Shake off any excess breading and transfer the eggplant to a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining eggplant.
- In a large straight-sided skillet, pour the oil to a depth of 1/2 inch. Heat the oil over medium heat until it registers 400 degrees F on a deep frying thermometer. (The oil must be heated to 400 degrees F. so that the breaded eggplant, when added, will drop the temperature of the oil to the proper frying temperature of 375 degrees F.)
- Working in small batches, fry the eggplant slices, turning once, until golden brown, about 3 minutes per batch. Using tongs, transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and season with salt to taste. Repeat with the remaining eggplant.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly brush a 15 x 10- x 2-inch-baking dish with olive oil. Cover the bottom of the baking dish with 1/3 of the marinara sauce and arrange half of the eggplant over the sauce. Cover the eggplant with another 1/3 of the sauce. Scatter half of the Parmesan and half of the mozzarella over the sauced eggplant. Repeat with the remaining eggplant, sauce, Parmesan, and mozzarella. Bake until hot and just beginning to brown, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately.
- Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Saute the onion and garlic, stirring, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and the herb sprigs and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes.
- Remove and discard the herb sprigs. Stir in the salt and season with pepper to taste. Use immediately, store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Yield: about 3 1/2 cups

Steps:
- Cut each eggplant into about ½-inch (1-cm) thick round slices.
- Arrange the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with paper towels.
- Sprinkle the eggplant with half of the coarse salt. Flip the slices over and sprinkle with the rest of the salt.
- Put another baking sheet on top of the eggplant and place something heavy, like a cast-iron skillet, on the top baking sheet to help release moisture from the eggplant. Let sit for 30 minutes.
- Uncover the eggplant slices and pat dry with paper towels. Brush most of the salt from the eggplant with a paper towel, then transfer to a medium bowl. Set aside.
- In a separate medium bowl, combine the flour, oregano, basil, garlic powder, and pepper. Mix well.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan until it reaches 375°F (190°C).
- Coat each eggplant slice in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess flour.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Fry the eggplant in batches until golden brown on both sides, 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined baking sheet and pat dry using more paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- Pour about 1 cup (260 g) of marinara sauce into a 2½-quart (2 L) baking dish and spread evenly to cover the bottom of the dish.
- Add about 8 eggplant slices (it's okay if they overlap) and cover with ½ cup (130 g) of marinara. Sprinkle with a third of the fresh basil, then top with about a third of the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan. Repeat to make 2 more layers. Finish with the fresh mozzarella cheese and a final sprinkling of Parmesan.
- Bake for 30 minutes, until the mozzarella is bubbling and golden brown.
- Let cool for 10 minutes, then serve garnished with fresh basil.
- Enjoy!
D.J. DONPASTA'S EGGPLANT PARMESAN
This dish comes from Daniele De Michele, the Italian slow-food activist and disc jockey who calls himself D.J. Donpasta. Mr. De Michele has traveled around Italy, interviewing cooks, artisans and fishermen, and collecting recipes in an effort to preserve the country's age-old food traditions. Though this dish takes substantial prep time, it all pays off in a tender, complex entree.

Steps:
- Cut the eggplants into rounds about 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle them with a pinch of salt and let sit for an hour in a colander in the sink.
- Meanwhile, make the meatballs: In a medium bowl, mix together the meat, 1 egg, parsley, pecorino, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. In a small bowl, add 2 tablespoons water to the bread crumbs. When absorbed, add this to the meatball mixture and combine well. Shape into small (1-inch) meatballs and fry in a skillet with a little oil over medium to medium-high heat until browned all over, about 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Sauté the onions until softened, about 4 minutes. Add the tomato sauce and bring to a simmer. Turn off heat and cover to keep warm.
- In a small pan, bring 3 eggs to a boil. Turn off heat and let sit for 8 minutes. Run them under cold water until cool, peel and cut into thin slices.
- In a large deep pot, heat remaining oil. Whisk remaining 3 eggs in a wide, shallow dish and place flour in another wide, shallow dish, for dredging. Pat dry eggplant rounds, briefly dip in egg, then flour, and drop into the hot oil. Fry in batches, until lightly browned. Drain on paper towels.
- To assemble the casserole, spoon about 1 cup of the tomato sauce into a 9-by-13-inch (or 3-quart) baking dish. Layer a third of the eggplant rounds like shingles. Top with a third of the Parmigiano and basil, and half of the mozzarella, sliced egg, meatballs and mortadella. Spoon 1 cup of sauce over that and repeat, layering with another third of the eggplant rounds, then another third of the Parmigiano and basil, and the remainder of the mozzarella, egg and meats. Spoon 1 cup of sauce over that. Finish with a final layer of eggplant rounds; top with remaining sauce, Parmigiano and basil. Bake at 400 degrees for about 30 minutes. Serve lukewarm.

EGGPLANT PARMESAN WITH RIGATONI
Steps:
- For the sauce: Add the olive oil, crushed red pepper, onion and salt to taste to a medium saucepan. Turn on the heat to medium and saute the onions until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the crushed tomatoes, garlic, 1/4 cup water and more salt to taste. Stir to combine and allow to cook down until the sauce is reduced and the flavors have melded, 15 to 20 minutes.
- For the eggplant: Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Peel the eggplant lengthwise, alternating every inch so there are still some strips of skin remaining. Slice the eggplant into 1/2-inch rounds and arrange on a sheet tray. Season the eggplant on both sides generously with salt and set aside.
- Set up a dredging station with three bowls: place the flour into one bowl, eggs into another and panko in the third. One at a time, dip the eggplant rounds into the flour first, then the eggs and finally the panko. Press the breading into the eggplant to ensure it is fully coated. Place on a sheet tray lined with a rack.
- Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan until it shimmers. Add the eggplant in batches and cook until golden brown, turning once, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drain the eggplant on a paper towel-lined tray. Drain the oil from the pan and set the pan aside for later.
- Top each piece of eggplant with a spoonful of sauce and a slice of fresh mozzarella. Bake until the cheese is just melted, 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese.
- For the pasta: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Season the pasta water generously with salt. It should be as salty as the sea. Add the rigatoni and cook according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- To finish, add a few scoops of sauce to the saute pan that the eggplant was cooked in. Add the cooked rigatoni and toss in the sauce, ensuring all of the noodles are coated. Add the Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil.
- To serve: Plate 2 pieces of the eggplant Parmesan alongside a generous scoop of rigatoni and finish with the fresh basil. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Slice the eggplants into twelve 1/2-inch-thick slices (total), then stack them on top of each other and cut off the eggplant skins. (Cut your slices first, then the skin, so that you don't cut too much eggplant flesh off.)
- Beat the eggs in a bowl and put the eggplant slices in the egg wash. Preheat 2 saute pans over high heat with 1/2 cup olive oil in each pan. Take the eggplant slices from the egg wash and saute 6 slices in each pan until golden brown on each side. Once you flip the slices over, poke a couple of holes with a fork in the eggplant. Then hold the eggplant to one side of the pan and drain the oil out of each pan. Add the garlic and basil to each pan. Add 2 ounces white wine to each pan. Then add 12 ounces marinara sauce to each pan. Turn down the heat to a simmer. Turn the eggplant slices in the saute pans, making sure the sauce is on the bottom and the eggplant remains on top. Top each slice with 1 slice of provolone. Add 1 tablespoon Parmesan to each eggplant slice. Add a pinch of chopped parsley to each pan. Then cover to melt everything together. Then plate. When plating, take the eggplant out first, making sure the cheese stays on top. Surround the plated eggplant with the remaining sauce in the pan.
