My mom made pickled eggplant with black olives. It was so amazing with meat layered on lettuce leaf. She never shared her recipe....well guess what mom. I'm making it now!

@alessandrasfoodislove 2 года назад

@samo2585 5 месяцев назад

In my culture we add walnut and sun-dried red pepper to the garlic and a slice of beetroot to make them pinkish.

My mother-in-law from Rome was keeping the aubergine pieces in vinegar overnight and then was leaving to dry on the paper in front of the sun :) and later was placing those pieces into the jars or plastic containers filled with olive oil, garlic, rosemary and something else and leaving closed for a week or so (can’t remember well now).. I just love this antipasto :)

tAlessandra, this recipe Ive got to try, what agreat idea with the garden brick, I use a sock covered brick to use as a weight for my sewing work table cutting drapery fabric, I have a tip for you instead of using your hands to release the water from the eggplant's, use a potato ricer, it will not destroy the eggplant, it will release so much water-you'll think it's too dry! I do this with chopped frozen spinach it never comes out of those little holes..just the water, saves a lot of work, I really enjoy every video keeps me in a "Happy Place" yes cooking is love! and I see a lot of Love goe's into your cooking!! thank you

@alessandrasfoodislove 3 года назад

Thank you Ann I will try that. Of course I have a Ricer because I make potato croquettes. Sometimes my hands ache squeezing the eggplants. That’s so wonderful that you see. When I was younger I did too but nothing fancy. I love to create so drapery sounds like so much fun. Thank you for the tip. Really appreciate it. Goodnight 🌙💤

Hi Alessandra. Thank you so much for this video. My mom used to make pickled eggplant, mushrooms, artichokes and even peppers. During the winter months, on Sunday night, we would eat them with good Italian bread along side left over pasta from Sunday afternoon dinner. I’ve already done the eggplant and it’s so good. Can’t wait to make the mushrooms and sun dried tomatoes. I just have one question. Can you reuse leftover oil in the jar when you make a new batch? Thanks again for your great recipes.

@alessandrasfoodislove 2 года назад

Dear Maria, Thank you so so much for your beautiful message. I felt like you were describing my family. 💖 I use the leftover oil for dressing over salads, stressing beans and potatoes or tuna fish salad. I don’t prefer using it to add more eggplants. Thank you so much for watching. I look forward making green tomatoes pickled. 💖💖

@samanthaheath8664 2 года назад

I enjoyed your video my question is after you make the eggplant do you store in a cool dry place 1st and then after a period of time like a month do you put them in the refrigerator because I've been watching different videos and yours has been my favorites.

@alessandrasfoodislove 2 года назад

Finally, with a grinder, I blended some cumin seeds with coriander seeds to add to the finishing touch. Next day, I tasted the eggplants which came out fabulous.

Hi. How long will this last in the fridge before going off?

@alessandrasfoodislove Год назад

Thank you for watching. If made correctly it can last a year or more. My grandmother would make it and we would eat them through the winter.

Can half vinegar and half water be used instead of all oil?

@alessandrasfoodislove 7 месяцев назад

Not really. Will be too vinegary. Hope you’ll try it. Thank you for watching 💕💕

My mother made them.. loved them when i was a kid. I tried 1 summer ago but it is impossible to find good eggplant tried growing them.. but they turned out too bitter.

Hi Kathleen, Try again don’t let it discourage you. I usually get them in season during the summer or Whole Foods throughout the year. Buon Natale 💫🎄

Question - Is the eggplant cooked in any way? Should it be? Or is it just raw pickled?

@alessandrasfoodislove 11 месяцев назад

It’s raw pickled. The salting and vinegar process is enough. Hope you’ll try it. Thank you for watching!

@jennifermavronicolas4941 3 месяца назад

I tried the recipe and was disappointed. Was really rubbery, as though it should have been cooked. Flavour was good

@suhanmolla6506 3 года назад

How much time can store this

@alessandrasfoodislove 3 года назад

If stored properly even a couple of months in the fridge. When you eat the eggplants always top off with more oil to cover. Be very careful to use a clean fork when when serving. In my house it never lasts more than a week. lol Thank you for watching.

I'm looking for pickled green beans in oil recipe. I know it's not connected to the video, but I thought someone might know. It's definitely Italian. I got it from a friends mom in Napoli. Years ago, she died since. I don't know the name of the pickle, it tastes a bit vinegary, salty but it's in oil. Seems like it's made as melanzane, but not with aubergine. If anyone knows what I'm looking for, please let me know.:) Thanks.

@@alessandrasfoodislove Thank you. Looking forward to it. Tried it yesterday but as I cooked the beans in the vinegar it didn't get soft it dried out and got wrinkly. I put it in the oil anyway, but would be good to see how it's done.:)

Are they very vinegary once opened ?

@alessandrasfoodislove Год назад

Thank you for watching. Not a all, they’re one of my favorite things in sandwiches and escarole salad.

@inescardillo8829 Год назад

I always heard that the bottom of the eggplant has to be round which means it's male and will have less seeds. I noticed that your eggplants have an elongated base. How do I make sure that I purchase the best eggplants with less seeds for the recipe? I actually like less seeds for my eggplant parm too.

@raffaellavitiello1762 Год назад

Why does everyone Julianne the eggplant I like it in round circles and not a lot of spices just garlic and oil with the vinegar

Did anyone garlic turn blue 🤔

@alessandrasfoodislove 2 года назад

That’s normal and ok. Garlic enzymewhich give it that distinct flavor break down over time. Naturally occurring sulfur in the garlic interacts with those enzymes, occasionally turning it slightly green or blue Thank you so much for watching.
