I make these all of the time. They are so tasty. It’s hard to stop eating them.
Giada,
Can you tell me why you prefer Japanese Eggplant to the typical eggplant?
Is there a reason for your choice?
Btw... it looks wonderful.. and want to try this.
This is only good for those who are well-versed with the industry because the rest will be practically fodder. [brain games](https://games.lol/brain/)
I made this last night using my own tomato sauce recipe. It was delicious! I want to note that at an oven temp of 425 you must place in center to bottom of oven. I cooked each side at 8 minutes each and only 10 minutes more when adding sauce and cheese. Thank you for this recipe! [armor games](https://games.lol/armor/)
