Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Eggplant has been called "the vegetarian's beef" because of its meaty texture. Choose firm, even-colored eggplants that are heavy for their size and free of blemishes. Caps and stems should be intact with no mold. Refrigerate unwashed in a plastic bag up to 5 days.
