    Contessa,

    I will mark my calendar for this exciting event. It will be a pleasure to see the Hen House inventory come to life again at this event. We have so missed the familiar place and its wondrous allure. Twill be lovely to see you showcasing oodles of goodies to tempt the most reticent of clients. Your charm is that you dispense joy if we wish to partake. Happiness is an attitude! Merci beaucoup Contessa!

Slice eggplant length way.Salt, the pieces, and let them drain in a colander for a couple hours. Wipe off water. Fry in olive oil over low to medium flame each side until golden brown.This takes some time, but you really can’t walk away from it. Next assemble your eggplant slices put some tomato sauce on the bottom of the pan then eggplants then tomato sauce again add some torn mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese. Continue the process until all your eggplant slices are gone, bake 325 oven for about 45 minutes! Bon appétit🥰 . . #eggplantrecipes #eggplantparmigiana #dinnerisserved
