Frequently Asked Questions About Patlağı

How should you store eggplant?

Store eggplant in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight if you plan to use it soon; refrigerate it in the crisper drawer for short-term storage. Prolonged exposure to cold can soften its texture, so use it while the skin is still firm and glossy.

Can you freeze eggplant?

Yes, but blanch or cook eggplant before freezing for a better texture. Slice it, briefly blanch or roast it, cool it completely, and freeze in portions. Freezing it raw can leave it watery and soft when thawed.

Do you need to salt eggplant before cooking?

No, salting eggplant is not essential with most modern varieties. It can draw out moisture and season the slices, and may help if your eggplant tastes bitter. Pat the pieces dry afterward so they brown instead of steam.

Can you eat eggplant raw?

Yes, eggplant can be eaten raw, but it is usually cooked because raw flesh can taste bitter and feel firm. Wash it well, slice it thinly, and avoid any piece that tastes unusually bitter or appears spoiled.

Can you eat eggplant skin?

Yes, eggplant skin is edible and usually softens during cooking, so there is no need to peel a fresh, tender eggplant. You may want to remove the skin from heavily charred eggplant because burnt peel can taste bitter.

How do you keep eggplant from absorbing so much oil?

To limit oil absorption, dry the eggplant and cook it in a hot pan with only a small amount of oil, or roast it instead. Avoid leaving slices sitting in oil; eggplant’s porous flesh soaks it up quickly.

How can you tell if an eggplant is ripe?

Choose an eggplant with smooth, glossy, unwrinkled skin and a green-looking stem. It should feel firm and heavy for its size, without soft spots. A dull, shrivelled surface or a brown, dried stem can indicate that it is past its best.

Why does eggplant turn brown after you cut it?

Cut eggplant browns when its flesh reacts with air. Cook it soon after slicing, or keep the pieces in water with a little lemon juice until you are ready to use them; drain and dry them before cooking.

What is the best way to roast eggplant?

For evenly roasted eggplant, cut it into similarly sized pieces, lightly coat them with oil, and spread them in a single layer on a baking tray. Roast until the flesh is tender and the edges are browned, turning the pieces once if needed.

Is eggplant the same as aubergine?

Yes, eggplant and aubergine are two names for the same vegetable. “Eggplant” is more common in American English, while “aubergine” is widely used in British English; the vegetable and its culinary uses are the same.

What is Patlağı?

Patlağı is listed under this name, but the vegetable described is eggplant, also called aubergine: a glossy, purple-skinned vegetable with tender flesh. It is widely used in Turkish home cooking, from olive-oil dishes and stews to stuffed eggplant and smoky dips made with the flesh of grilled vegetables.

Its flavour is mild and its texture turns soft and creamy when cooked; charring brings out a deeper, smoky taste. Serve it as a side, in a mezze spread, or as the centre of a meat-free meal. At 25 calories and 3 g of fibre per 100 g, it is a light, fibre-containing choice. Roasting or grilling with a modest amount of oil keeps it lighter, and it pairs well with tomato, garlic and yoghurt.
