Boom, Eggplant Parmesan is born. But here’s the kicker—despite the fancy name, it’s got nothing to do with Parma. Nope. This bad boy comes straight outta Sicily or maybe Campania, where they’ve been tossing eggplants around since the Arabs brought ‘em over centuries ago. Layer it up with some rich tomato sauce, a scandalous amount of cheese, and suddenly—bam!—you’ve got a dish that’s crunchy, gooey, and so good it should probably be illegal. Over the years, it’s traveled the world, picking up a few tweaks here and there, but one thing’s for sure—Eggplant Parm ain't just food; it’s an experience. Let's make it together: Ingredients (for a 13x10 pan): 4 Eggplants Salt 250g Flour 1 lt Canola Oil For the Tomato Sauce: 700g Tomato Passata 3 Garlic Cloves Lots of Fresh Basil Salt to taste To layer it: Scamorza, also known as Smoked Mozzarella (1 ball sliced) BUY IT HERE: https://amzn.to/42rTo4e 200 g Parmigiano Reggiano (Or Pecorino Romano) KITCHEN EQUIPMENT USED IN THIS VIDEO: Cooking Guild Chef Knife: https://amzn.to/4h7TIdb Mandolin Slicer: https://amzn.to/3EbDoJF Portable Gas Stove: https://amzn.to/3EbDoJF Caraway Sauce Pan: https://amzn.to/4awfHrI Caraway Frying Pan: https://amzn.to/42rTo4e Ooni Baking Pan with Lid: https://amzn.to/42rTo4e Ooni Volt Oven: https://amzn.to/3ChPiRJ Ooni Pizza Ovens : https://bit.ly/3Z4mJ2L Cooking Guild Knives: https://bit.ly/4f7Pr80 This Flour: https://amzn.to/4jpfQB6 Smoked Mozzarella or Scamorza: https://amzn.to/42rTo4e My AMAZON STORE: https://www.amazon.com/shop/milezerok...
