Comments on: Melitzanes Papoutsakia (Stuffed Eggplant) https://www.closetcooking.com/melitzanes-papoutsakia-stuffed-eggplant/ Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

The 60-90 minutes is to cook the eggplant shell until tender.

Is the timing correct? 60 – 90 minutes to brown the cheese?

I have seen several recipes that call for salting the eggplant and letting it sit for 30 minutes to draw out the bitterness.

I have never had luck cooking eggplant, they always taste bitter. Do you do anything to yours before you cook them?
