Those are actually the two ways I don't like cauliflower.

Longer artichokes are easier to prepare, have a larger edible portion:total weight and are more useful. There's even a mutant variety of artichoke where the leaves are just long, celery-like ribs and this one is almost entirely edible.

You're cooking them wrong. Mine stay purple.
Baba ghanouz is delicious, you've likely never actually had eggplant parm and terong balado (eggplant in chilli sauce) is far, far better than balado timun Jepang (zucchine in chilli sauce, which isn't even really a dish because it blows so hard).
Zucchine parm, however, is every bit as good as a proper eggplant parm.

[Anonymous No.18909262]

>>18909108
The other stuff does sound admittedly good, but I HAVE indeed had eggplant parmesan and it IS inferior to chicken parm. I wouldn't have brought it up otherwise.
I get that in both dishes it's the oil, sauce, and cheese adding all the flavor but the texture of the eggplant blows compared to a firm and tender cutlet.

Purple pigment in vegetables depends on pH level. It turns brighter in acidic medium, but turns blue in bases.

>HAVE indeed had eggplant parmesan
Unless the eggplant was cut into extremely thin ribbons, deep-fried briefly on its own (IE unbreaded) then drained, wicked of excess oil and layered in a way similar to how one would layer lasagne, you haven't and the fact that you bring up its texture strongly implies I'm right. Anglicised versions cut the eggplant into thick fillets and bread them, which is a separate dish entirely, cotolette di melanzane IE eggplant cutlets. For some reason, Anglos have conflated the two. They do have a mushy interior texture which I love for its contrast with the crunchy breading though I completely understand why others might find it challenging.

Yes. I actually work on a farm that grows them. Every Friday, if there’s extra produce, we all head to the parsnip fields and have at it until midnight. Then, the last guy to make it back to the barn once midnight strikes has to eat all of the used parsnips. I’ve been on a good winning streak recently, so I haven’t been able to taste one in a while, but usually the taste is determined by the person who used them more so than the parsnip itself.
