How To Make Eggplant Parmesan
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- Today we're making egg and cheese Neapolitan eggplant parmesan (parmigiana di melanzane). This was the way my Grandmother always made it for us growing up. Frying the eggplant discs in a simple Pecorino Romano cheese and egg batter is so delicious. The pieces are so good that you just want to eat them as is. But push on and make the parmigiana with a simple marinara, some basil, Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, and mozzarella. I hope you enjoy and learn how to make this eggplant parm recipe!

This guy is my go-to Italian cook. I’m from NY and absolutely love his videos! He’s the best!
ditto from London!!!
Thanks a ton! Appreciate you watching!
@@forearthbelow - ditto from Anchorage Alaska ❄️☃️❄️☃️❄️
Yep
He knows what he's doing. Great with ingredients break down. Bravo!
@@His-Joule Damn, how do you guys even find vegetables to buy up in Alaska? Must be pretty expensive 😅
Jim I told my own Italian grandmother about you today! She is 94 and loved to hear that you’ve got me trying out some of our favorite recipes, this one included. Interestingly, she revealed she doesn’t care for eggplant parm, but made it all the time because the rest of the family loved it.
This man has the best voice he could talk to me all day 😁
"Eggplant parm series"
A series. Just for eggplant parm.
This guy is the fucking best.
Ok I’m a Kraut who LOVES Italian food from the simplest all the way to shrimp fra diavlo . I stumbled across this channel in a fit of insomnia and now I’m STARVING. Kudos man kudos.
Excellent. Whatever you do, don't make your cooking channel generic, or shift the focus away from your expertise. It's obvious Long Island grandma-style cooking is awesome. Everyone needs this
Bravo, maestro of the melanzane! Your classic eggplant parmigiana has me saying 'Holy cannoli!' You've transformed the humble eggplant into a superstar of flavor and cheesy goodness. Thanks for sharing your culinary wizardry on your channel and making us all eggplant enthusiasts. Keep dishing out those scrumptious recipes and enchanting our taste buds. You're a true parmigiana Picasso! 👏
I'm a BIG Eggplant Parm fan. I just really love Eggplant. I started making my Lasagna with 1/4" thin layers of Eggplant prepared just like you did here to replace every other layer of Lasagna noodles starting with a noodle on the bottom and finishing with a noodle on the top. One of my all-time favorite dishes!
I love your prepping and cooking style. Love how you mentioned cleaning off the top of the lid on your tomato can. So often when I watch cooking shows, they fail to mention these important steps. I found your channel the other day and love everything you make. Thank you for sharing your delicious recipes with us.
Eggplant parm is one of my favorite dishes to order in a restaurant, but I’ve been too intimidated to try to make it myself
You have given me the confidence and knowledge to give it a shot. I love your videos and have made a few of your dishes, which have all been great!
Thank you for what you do! ❤️
Thanks very much! I hope you enjoy it.
Appreciate this video! I know my most people like to do it in bread crumb, but my mother used to make it in the flower like this
I love your videos because you are clear and concise!!
You are a master of pasta dishes. I've tried a few and DELICIOUS!!
Thank you for your expertise.
Man. I found your channel two years ago, and it's been awesome to see it explode. My cooking skills are better because of you. I'm on an eggplant parm kick at the moment, and learned a bit from this ancient vid from you. Thanks, man!
The Cheese & Egg batter is brilliant! I’d always used seasoned bread crumbs… I tried it, loved it, and I’m taking it to the next level! Thanks!
Literally can't sleep thinking about this eggplant Parmesan!! I can't wait to make it!
Thanks! Hope you enjoy it!
Watching this at 5:00 am ... can’t sleep but this looks so incredibly delicious. Thank you for your recipe. ❤️
I have never made eggplant parmesan before, but I'm about to try it now that you have given me the encouragement. Thanks so much for all your recipes.
I love eggplant parmigiana! I grow my own eggplants in the summer, and they are great! Try adding a center layer of ricotta! Also I deep fry mine and coat with flour mixed with bread crumbs. To die for! Great tip with the trays! Thanks!
Thanks! Ricotta and eggplant are a perfect combination. Growing them yourself is the best!
Am I the only one whose Mom peeled her eggplant? Sliced thin, about 3/16", she used flour/egg/flour, and just sauce and pecorino between layers. Sis makes it for me on occasion. BTW, I made your lasagna recipe - absolutely brilliant.
A lot of people peel the eggplant. It's really just a matter of personal preference. So happy you enjoyed the lasagna!
Your Eggplant Parm Recipe is way better than a lot of other on RUclips. Thank-you so much
when I studied in Italy I'd get this in a neighborhood restaurant and they'd serve it in little metal pans they cooked it in, it was insanely good with the crispy edge around the outside. I had never even ate a single eggplant in my life previously. I saw others with it and just asked what it was.
I left NY State 30 years ago. All my great friends were from the city. Being Hungarian it was a real treat to eat Italian at their homes. Your videos and delivery reminds me of those great times. Keep up the wonderful work you do.
Thanks so much!
never thought to fry eggplant with the egg as the outside batter, great!
My all time favorite ! I do remove the eggplant skin c a vegetable peeler before slicing and salting. Wow, never added pecorino to the egg wash ! Great idea ! Thank you !
Hey I know many people prefer the skin off. I often change it up. The egg wash and cheese was always the way my Grandmother made it. Thank you for liking the video!
Best eggplant I ever had, been following him for a while and finally cooked from one of his recipes and was unbelievable thank you
Fabulous! This is one of my all time favorites. Eggplant parm, Antipasto, I 'm a happy camper. Thanks Jim! 🍷
My favorite too. Now I just need to wait for my eggplants to grow lol.
This is one italian dish I have never eaten, and I don't know why. It looks fantastic as always. Great job 👍
Thanks man always appreciate it! Look forward to you giving this one a try.
Thank you so much. I will bravely try making the sauce this Fall or Winter. I like your teaching style.
I love eggplant parm, my joints don't like eggplant that much so it's a rare treat.
I have never tried cooking this with pecorino in the batter before. I shall be trying your grandmother's recipe for sure. Thanks for all the great recipes!
These eggplant recipes are for me a meal in themselves or w a salad if the desire strikes. Just a quick fyi, some of my family’s names : Iacobetti- Giachetti- Migliaccio - so that’s one of the reasons why I so love this channel and his style of cooking !!
Fantastic! So helpful, fun and funny to listen to his comments as he goes :) Thanks so much!
Oh man thanks a lot this video i was a cook at Freds Madison at Barneys New York every time we make eggplant Parmesan memories came back to me good job
Thank you so much for explaining everything so clearly and even the recipe is so clear - my favourite Italian chef 💝
shout out for that old school Corningware baking dish.
There is nothing better than eggplant parm when it is made just right..............small...thin....light......
Thanks for this. I’ve made eggplant parm many times before but never without breadcrumbs. Love the way the eggplant 🍆 slices came out so light and delicious. Especially with all the fresh eggplant from the garden. Cheers!
Really love your teaching style and manner.
Thank you for this excellent video!
love your vids... they are put together so nicely. And its a godsend to have great audio which you do.. Thanks and keep up the great work
Thanks so much! My audio is a work in progress, but I'm trying to improve on each video.
Looks so good - love that you’re doing an eggplant parm series.
Thanks! I have 1 or 2 more coming up but need to space them out a bit😅
YESSSSSS! 😃
I love eggplant too
Them’s some big hunks of cheese.
Cheese flex.
Wonderful, I tried this and was extraordinary... Thank you.
Yum! Plan to make this tonight James! Thank you
I make eggplant Parm with my garden eggplants and basil and fresh homemade tomato sauce. Love the summer!😎
Yep i've made Pasta before but not like this..And baking the eggplant before is such an good idea&the layering...So a very helpful Italian education was to be had here!.Delicious!! Great job👍
That looks amazing. I have so enjoyed watching your cooking show. I do so just about every night after dinner. And I get hungry again every time! Eggplant parm is a dish I make often but I have never seen it done that way with no breadcrumbs before. I think I might like it it better than with breadcrumbs. I envy your son getting to try all your dishes. He reminds me of myself growing up at my mother and grandmother’s side at the stove. Best wishes, David
That really looks promising. I tried about 2 or 3 other eggplant parmesan recipes on youtube, but they never turned out very well. This is actually the first time that I hear about draining the eggplant stripes with salt. It totally makes sense though so I will definitely try out your method.
I really enjoy your videos, especially the different pizza variations, so please keep on making awesome content in the future.
Thanks so much. Hope you enjoy the recipe.
Im binging your eggplant series and have learned so much! Funny story....when I was about 5 years old..(.Im 72 now) I was watching my grandmother make eggplant and she was salting and pressing it and I asked her why. She said she was "getting the poison out of it" !!! And then she expected me to eat it???
...... I survived.
I'm fasting and this will be the meal to break the fast so really looking forward to trying it. The salt part seems like a really important part a lot would miss. like half of the recipes are from you now. Making homemade marinara sauce, meatballs, the parmesan cheese pasta with peas these have become my favorites in my rotation. I want to try your beef stew soon too.
Beautiful. My favorite food of all. Could eat it every day.....😋
Thanks for sharing this recipe. I love this dish.❤ I think I can do this.
Dude that recipe is KILLER!! Thanks man! 😊
Eggplant is my favorite vegetable. I live in Vegas, but when I return to Long Island to visit family I always make eggplant parmigiana. I also shop at Uncle Giuseppe's - one of the last places on LI where you can buy fresh mozzarella as it is prepared in vats of water.
Glad i found this recipe !
My go to Italian dish to please others. Always a hit !
Thank you very much!
I will never use breadcrumbs again..Wonderful this is!!!!
This looks amazing! Like my Ma used to make♥️😊
That looks so amazing. Even the eggplants that were just fried up, I could dip them in ranch and be a very Happy girl
Man, you’re killing me with the eggplant parmigiana ! Can I make two and freeze the other one without ruining it ? Excellent work and great inspiration to get cracking.
Live Italian dish to the Italian
Never thought to add cheese to egg wash. Great idea ! Thanks !
Thank you,you are a great cook.
your awsome, you so watchable from melbourne, Ausstalia loven your work
Best recipe and I just made it and it turned out very very delicious
Love watching you cook and everything looks delicious
Honestly, I'm here for the sauce and for the process; I just am not that crazy about eggplant, but I'm sure that I'll learn something that will help my cooking.
Thanks for this! I just made it and my family loves it! Also made your squid ink pasta as well previously. Will definitely be making more of your recipes; thank you very much!
Love the grated cheese in the egg dip!
Looks incredible James....Classic eggplant parmesan is my favorite. My wife likes the Sicilian version but I'm all classic.
Thanks so much! It's always a tough choice.
U made this dish with a lot of love. 👍🏿
Thanks so much!
@@SipandFeast
No doubt 🤗
Given the details in discription box,is too beneficial to understand the dish,, Thanks lots
My wife and I made it last night. Outstanding!
That's great to hear! Thanks for the comment.
I made eggplant parm alongside your video it came out great. Thank you soo much. You are amazing!
I'm happy it turned out so well for you! Thanks for watching and making my recipes!
Making this now. So much fun! Taking a break after frying before moving on to assembly. I'm going to save and freeze a couple of pieces of the fried eggplant to slice up and put on some pizza next week. Damn....smells so good in my kitchen!
Omg this is my next recipe to try & master - thx Jim
Looks Amazing 🤩
I am making this tonight!!
Oooooh!!! This is seriously one of my all time faves!!! You never disappoint!!!!!! Looks INCREDIBLE, Jimmy!!! 🍆 🍅 🙌
Thanks so much Elaina🙏 One of my favorites too. Wish I had a batch right now.
Yeah, like we weren’t already subscribed! ❤️
ah um ah what's the phrase I'm struggling to remember... ahhhh got it.
BRILLIANT, just brilliant.
You had me worried for a minute haha. Thanks for liking the video!
Thank you so much for this video. My mouth is watering as I watch you and I swear I could smell that eggplant frying! My wonderful Italian landlady taught me how to make this dish many years ago, and you make it just like she did. As you mentioned,it's a lot of work, so you might as well make a lot. One thing she would do, was to make enough so that she'd have some leftover to freeze. She would fry and drain the eggplant, then layer it with waxed paper, put it into a zip lock baggie, squeeze the air out, and freeze it. Then all you need to do when you're ready to eat, is thaw it out, layer with sauce, cheese and bake. She said if you tried to freeze it with the sauce, it was too "mooshad", sorry, don't know how to spell it, but you know, mushy. Have you ever tried this?
Frying a lot and saving in the freezer is a good idea. My Grandmother did that as well. I always forget to do it though lol.
Looks delicious 😊
I want it now....
.... it can burn my mouth...lol....looks soooo good. 😋
That was a great video. Can't wait to make it. I had to subscribe.
Thanks man! This was a long video, but I tried to cover all aspects.
My family loved it. Thank you ❤️
Great to hear! Thanks for the feedback.
Ciao sono italiana e ti vedo cucinare la nostra cucina così bene o pensato sei italiano magari di origine e sicuramente la nonna ti a imparato bravissimo
Hey thanks very much! This recipe was from my Grandmother. Her mother moved to America in early 1900's from Italy. This was the way she made parmigiana.
@@SipandFeast bravo ricetta fatta bene come le fanno le nostre nonne italiane il ostro orgoglio ti abbraccio e continua così
I am laughing so hard while watching you cook … 1000% my style …love it 👍😍
Great video!
Have a great new year!
i tried both just flour and breaded, prefer flour only way too heavy with the breading plus the breading sogs up from moisture anyways so whats the point
Love all of ur videos that i saw up till now did u or can u make video for veal n chicken cutlet meals ? Thank u
Hey I've made chicken cutlets here: ruclips.net/video/k28eo_aDfkI/видео.html and chicken parm here: ruclips.net/video/MLf7Cp65oQg/видео.html. I've made about 20 recipes with chicken. Veal can be subbed in any of them. I just don't cook with it very much because none of my family members eat it anymore. Thanks for liking the videos!
Your thumbnail pics get me every time :) so yummy
Thank you
Looks delish I will try this thanks for sharing…..
Thanks very much! Hope you enjoy it!
Does your use of salt right away keep the eggplants from getting brown? I was always told you had to cover them with olive oil to keep that brown color from forming after cutting. Maybe you just have superior eggplant! They look so beautiful. My variation is I sometimes use ricotta in addition to the other cheeses. My obsession for cheese knows no bounds...
My fav Food is eggplant parm. My 2nd are tamales. My 3rd is injera - all vegetarian. My fourth is the Carl’s Jr. jalapeño burger. If it’s good, it’s good!
I once salted eggplant and didn’t know I was supposed to rise the salt off when I was done. As you might imagine, the dish was inedible.
My mouth is watering!
Thank you!
Jesus, this looks so good!
Happy National Italian day!
