le aubergine

my wife was given 9 eggplants by a neighbor the other day, and did some poking around about what to do with the beasts (serving them to a church gathering is the goal). after considering roasted vegetables, thai style, she settled on waffled eggplant, which consists of breading the eggplant and cooking it on the waffle iron.
as for myself, i've been told that i'm allergic to eggplant since my early childhood, and have faithfully shied away from it since (assuming it to be some form of squash, which i have an allergy that has proven somewhat less severe in my adulthood). however, in the course of waffling the eggplant, my wife announced that it is a member of the nightshade family, and is therefore not a squash at all, but more of a tomato. i promptly tried a piece of the waffled eggplant and am happy to report that no ill-effects have ensued so far (though zyrtec may be to thank); i'm also happy to say that the eggplant was delicious.
