Instructions

  1. Remove the top and about ¼” of the bottom of the eggplant. You can leave the peel on or remove it using a sharp paring knife or peeler.
  2. Then cut into desired shape
  3. Slices: Stand the eggplant up vertically and make ½” vertical slices.
  4. Rounds: Lay the eggplant on its side and make ½” slices across the eggplant
  5. Cubes: Stand the eggplant up vertically and make ½” vertical slices. Then slice each slice into sticks. And finally, cut the sticks into desired cub size.

Notes

  • Storage: Store the eggplant in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week. Brush them with lemon juice to slow down the browning process.
  • Freezing: Raw cut eggplant needs to be blanched before freezing it. It will keep well for up to 6 months and should be fully thawed before cooking it.
