Direcciones
- Peel eggplants and cut them from blossom to stem in thin slices, about 1/8-inch thick. Lightly salt each slice on both sides. Arrange slices on large platter in single, slightly overlapping layer. Sprinkle with lemon juice and then extra virgin olive oil.
- Cover with plastic wrap, and let pickle in cold place, not the refrigerator, 2 hrs. Turn eggplant once during this time and slightly shake platter to ensure even distribution of dressing.
- Just before serving, scatter surface of eggplant with very thin slices of pecorino, cut with a sharp knife or possibly cheese slicer.
- This recipe yields 6 servings.
- Comments: In Polizzi, this dish is served as a tangy component of a summer antipasto. Use the long white eggplant, not the round. Serve this with good crusty bread.
