Steps:
- 1 Trim off the tops of the eggplants. Cut the eggplants in half lengthwise. With a small sharp knife and a spoon, scoop out the eggplant pulp, leaving a shell about 1/2 inch thick. Coarsely chop the pulp and place it in a colander. Sprinkle generously with salt and set over a plate to drain. Sprinkle the insides of the eggplant shells with salt and place them upside down on paper towels. Let drain for 30 minutes. 2 Rinse off the salt with cool water and dry the eggplant with paper towels. Squeeze the pulp to extract the water. 3 Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until a small piece of eggplant sizzles when added to the pan. Add the eggplant pulp and cook, stirring frequently, until it begins to brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, anchovies, olives, capers, oregano, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook until thickened, about 5 minutes more. 4 Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Oil a baking pan just large enough to hold the eggplant shells in a single layer. 5 Fill the shells with the eggplant mixture. Place them in the pan. Toss the bread crumbs with the remaining oil and sprinkle them over the shells. Bake 45 minutes or until the shells are tender when pierced. Let cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:
- Choose the right eggplants. Look for eggplants that are firm and have smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid eggplants that are too large or have bruises or wrinkles.
- Prepare the eggplants properly. Cut the eggplants in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Brush the inside of the eggplants with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Don't overcook the eggplants. Eggplants should be cooked until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked eggplants will become mushy.
- Use high-quality ingredients. The quality of your ingredients will greatly affect the flavor of your dish. Use fresh, flavorful ingredients whenever possible.
- Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to stuff eggplants. Get creative and try different fillings and flavor combinations.
