My Nona, like you, was from Napoli and breaded. My other Nona was from Calabria and she breaded, as did my Mom and all my aunts. When you say "real Italians" that takes in a lot of territory. Some real Italians, in some dishes (horrors!) leave garlic in, especially in a 6 hour Sunday Sauce. I like to infuse so the garlic doesn't burn, but that's just me. Love your show, it's just that a lot of folk these days say stuff about "real Italians" when "my Nona " or "real Italian family" would be more true. We love you and watch all the time! Merry Christmas!!!
It looks delicious, the flour then egg is like a francese. Never thought to make it this way but deff going to try it! I have a few eggplants from the garden I need to use up
when i was 21 years old i spent a summer at cornell university and the first dish i ever made was eggplant parm from their cooking school's library. i have made it that way for 47 years and last night i tried your way. what a game changer. thank you for sharing this, laura.
I love how you talk about your grandmother. I can tell how much you loved her like I loved my MawMaw when she was still here. Sharing her love of cooking with me meant the world! Thank you for sharing a piece of your family! ❤️
I have eaten different type of eggplant recipes from multiple Caribbean islands and made the one you have illustrated in you tube. The family and friends enjoyed very much smooth taste not oil and no bread crumbs... thanks to the chef 'laura"!...
Laura, I'll eat however it is made. In Bari we skin and breadcrumb with a few other simple ingredients. Funny how different families from different regions execute. Love your show. Good health to la famiglia.
My grandmother was half Italian and half Souix Indian but I never really knew her she died when I was two. But my mom said that she was a phenomenal cook. Of course I don't know if anybody was as good of a cook as my mother though.
🍆 parm is my favorite Italian dish. The olive garden version is good but you haven't lived till you tried it the right way. Bucco de pepo makes a good authentic one like Laura.
Omg Laura, I just made your di casa version. So good! I made enough to eat some, freeze some, and keep some in the fridge as a pizza topping for the end of the week. Thank you for sharing your recipes 💜
Yes! That is how my grandmother and mother made eggplant! Never salted and drained, just cut, floured and yes egg and cheese (our family always use Romano) and then fried. Delicious!
Hi Laura! You look lovely as always! I don't think that I have ever had Eggplant Parm, but I must say that yours had come out looking fantastic! I would definitely give that a try. Everything that you make always is first rate! Thanks for sharing your recipe. Have a great weekend my lovely friend and stay safe out there! ❤️
Great recipe Laura. I made it yesterday and my wife & I loved it. I definitely will be checking more of your recipes out. One question, have you ever made homemade Italian sausage? If you have, that would probably be a great video. Thanks again my new friend.
I had never tried eggplant like this. I made it and it was so delicious! It didn't even make it to Parmiggiana. I just had it plain our of the pan lol.
Hi Laura! This looks really good I can't wait to make it! I was binge-watching some of your dessert recipes and I made my first homemade cheesecake with homemade whipped cream! It turned out great thanks to you!😀👍💞
Hi Laura! I looove eggplant parm, thank you so much. I have a question though... I don't generally do it very often because I find it's so time consuming to fry the eggplant. Have you ever tried baking it?? Do you think it would be any good? Just as a way to make it more practical for everyday meals. Thank you!!
That looks delicious never seen it done that way thanks for shareing another great recipe I have a question have you ever made the eggplant with the rice in the middle like layer of eggplant then rice then eggplant again my nonna use to make that all the time I forget what you call it in Italian thanks
My mom absolutely loves eggplant parmigiana. Every time I try to order it, I get talked out of it, so I’ve never actually tried it before. Your method looks very delicious. I love to try this with my mom.
I've made it di casa and baked but never without crumbs. I've made zucchini with flour and eggs. Will try it ..looks so good. I make marinara just the way you do but I slice the garlic thin. I like to eat it. So hungry now..love eggplant.
I made both your eggplant recipes, and your right... I'll never make it with bread crumbs again. The best tasting eggplant Parm I made in 20 years. Thank You :-)
This turned out really good. I would recommend adding spices made my marinara sauce soooo yummy. I added dried Italian seasoning onion powder smoked paprika extra dried basil.
Timing is impeccable on this. It wasn't more than a couple weeks ago that I was planning to make a eggplant parm dish for the holidays and what do you know?... Laura decides to upload a video revisiting the dish.
I've always used my "gravy" w/ eggplant but this looks light and delicious comparatively!! I've got some shrimp to kill this weekend but this is on the go to menu now!! Love it..........
we need to discover away to watch and send what your kitchen smells like as your making all these delicious meals ,my stomach growls after each video ,thanks Laura❤️
My boyfriends nonna is also from Naples and she would NEVER coat eggplant in breadcrumbs for eggplant parm either! She does it exactly how you did it in this video,and its PERFECT every time❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hey Laura, FYI, the link for Eggplant 2 Ways on your website goes to Molten Chocolate Lava Cake. The eggplant parm in this video is next level, pure and delicious.
That is so good you're making me drool 🤤 I know what I'm making Sunday I haven't had eggplant parm in about 6 months which is ridiculous I'm also do chicken parm because I haven't had that either in awhile 😂😂😂
Ciao Laura and Family I’m from Triggiano Bari and I live in Roselle Illinois we make the same like that the eggplant 🍆 parmigiana thank you for sharing 😋
I love love love that you’re re-visiting older recipes. I think I’ll try this out this Sunday!

It's so beautiful the way you talk about your family, your memories and the warmth of the food!! 🤗💗

Me too. Even have my nephew saying it when he sees her
Same...Same
Yes 😂

Delicious! Thank you Nonna for teaching your granddaughter how to cook your fabulous foods.
It looks delicious, the flour then egg is like a francese. Never thought to make it this way but deff going to try it! I have a few eggplants from the garden I need to use up
Hi Laura you are regular in my house hold kitchen for years. I love all your recipes and so does my family. Thank you Ms V
Food does bring the family together. Thank you for sharing. Love the 2 different ways without breadcrumbs.
I never knew Eggplant parmesan was made 2 ways. I'm going to give them both a try. Thanks Laura.
Which one is better ?
when i was 21 years old i spent a summer at cornell university and the first dish i ever made was eggplant parm from their cooking school's library. i have made it that way for 47 years and last night i tried your way. what a game changer. thank you for sharing this, laura.

Tradition is everything. It’s how we remember and honor.
This one warms my heart. Family is so important. Food brings us together 💜Yummy
I tell ya when laura tries her food for the second time before she takes a bite at the end of the video, she really loves it.
Laura, I'll eat however it is made. In Bari we skin and breadcrumb with a few other simple ingredients. Funny how different families from different regions execute.
Love your show. Good health to la famiglia.
It’s my dream to visit Puglia!
I love how you shared the memories with the food. I am so sorry for your loss! Thanks for sharing a pit of your family with us!
The way those eggplants fried up is just GORGEOUS. Can't wait to try this out!
I made this over the weekend, it turned out great! And it made for delicious leftovers, too!
My father never salted eggplant or breaded it and we are Latino. He was Cuban but worked 25 years in restaurant’s.thank you for this.

my whole family hates eggplant, including myself..... but I made this for dinner last night and we are all converted! Absolutely IN LOVE!!
Yes! That is how my grandmother and mother made eggplant! Never salted and drained, just cut, floured and yes egg and cheese (our family always use Romano) and then fried. Delicious!

Great recipe Laura. I made it yesterday and my wife & I loved it. I definitely will be checking more of your recipes out.
One question, have you ever made homemade Italian sausage? If you have, that would probably be a great video. Thanks again my new friend.

This turned out really good. I would recommend adding spices made my marinara sauce soooo yummy. I added dried Italian seasoning onion powder smoked paprika extra dried basil.
First off that tomato sauce looks amazing! All the layers! Cheese! Crispy fried eggplant! YUM!
Timing is impeccable on this. It wasn't more than a couple weeks ago that I was planning to make a eggplant parm dish for the holidays and what do you know?... Laura decides to upload a video revisiting the dish.
Omg this is perfect! I was just thinking about what to do with my eggplant 😊
I did a few eggplant video recipes myself. Picked them fresh from my garden! 😋
Omg this is perfect ,thank you Laura so much🥰😘
My Nana made it the second way but always peeled the skin. Love it cold on crusty Italian bread
This is such a wonderful video❤️

Tonight's dinner!! We love Eggplant Parmesan!! (I have freshly picked eggplant just waiting to be used). 😍👍
Your food is always delicious looking.
Awesome video! This looks delicious! There’s a restaurant owned by people from Naples near me and they have this and it is delicious!😸😻😸
grazie mille per il video et le recette, laura ! non vedo l’ora di farlo !
It looks amazing! Do you usually just eat it by itself, or do you accompany it with other side dishes? :)
I've always used my "gravy" w/ eggplant but this looks light and delicious comparatively!!
I've got some shrimp to kill this weekend but this is on the go to menu now!! Love it..........

My boyfriends nonna is also from Naples and she would NEVER coat eggplant in breadcrumbs for eggplant parm either! She does it exactly how you did it in this video,and its PERFECT every time❤️❤️❤️❤️
It looks great!
OMG looks delicious. I want some.
We bake our at the end no matter. Baking it makes the eggplant even more tender and gives it a lasagna-like texture. Both ways, still amazing though.
I'm actually eating some right now, wondering what you're supposed to eat it with?
Looks so great, thanks for sharing, gonna try it!
Wow Looks so tasty and healthy
Love it Laura!!!! This is exactly like my mom would make it. This and Braciole were meals to die for :)
Love this dish! I only bake my eggplant in the oven.
Love it both ways ❤️❤️
Hey Laura, FYI, the link for Eggplant 2 Ways on your website goes to Molten Chocolate Lava Cake. The eggplant parm in this video is next level, pure and delicious.
They look amazing 👍
That looks so delicious
Nice recipe
That is so good you're making me drool 🤤 I know what I'm making Sunday I haven't had eggplant parm in about 6 months which is ridiculous I'm also do chicken parm because I haven't had that either in awhile 😂😂😂
Yummy! This looks so delicious!😍
I wonder if I could make this keto? Maybe use almond or coconut flour?
Thank you! 😉
Ciao Laura and Family I’m from Triggiano Bari and I live in Roselle Illinois we make the same like that the eggplant 🍆 parmigiana thank you for sharing 😋
I wish I was your neighbor, that looks great
Thank you for sharing your Nonna’s magic with us!❤️
Just made the di caza version, delicious!
Can I prepare this dish the day before?
I love your recipes! Is mario batalli the chef your dad?
