CRUNCHY EGGPLANT PARMESAN
This is a slightly different twist on the old standard eggplant Parmesan. By peeling and sweating the eggplant you eliminate the bitterness and the panko bread crumbs add a nice crunch to the crust. Freezes so well!

Steps:
- In a large bowl, toss the eggplant with 2 teaspoons salt, and let sit for 30 minutes at room temperature. Then, rinse the eggplant with water and drain.
- In a large saute pan, over medium heat, sweat the onion in the butter for 3 to 4 minutes or until translucent. Add the eggplant, and continue cooking for 15 to 20 minutes or until tender. Set aside 1 cup cooked eggplant to use as a garnish.
- In a large saucepan, bring the chicken stock to a simmer. Add the chopped parmesan, and simmer slowly for 45 minutes. Strain the stock, and discard the cheese.
- Puree the cooked eggplant with the chicken stock, then pass the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl, discarding the solids. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Make the parmesan crisps: In a large, nonstick saute pan, sprinkle half the grated parmesan into an even 1/8-inch layer. Cook slowly over medium-low heat until the cheese melts and turns golden brown.
- Loosen the edges of the parmesan from the pan with a rubber spatula. Carefully slide the melted cheese from the pan onto a cutting board. Immediately cut the cheese into 6 irregular triangles. While the cheese triangles are still hot, lay them over a wine bottle or rolling pin to create a curved crisp. Let the crisps cool completely. Repeat the process to create a total of 12 parmesan crisps.
- Ladle the hot soup into 4 bowls. Spoon some of the reserved eggplant into each bowl. Sprinkle with the shaved parmesan and chives. Place 3 parmesan crisps in the center of each bowl, and serve immediately.

CRISPY LEMON-PARMESAN EGGPLANT
Quick to make and quick to cook, that's this irresistibly easy riff on eggplant parm. Long slices of eggplant are broiled until tender and golden, and then topped with a zesty panko breadcrumb mixture. While the main vegetable broils, you'll whip up a simple and elegant tomato and arugula salad to serve on the side.

Steps:
- Preheat broiler on high with a rack 8 inches below element. Combine panko, cheese, and lemon zest; season with salt and pepper. Stir in 2 tablespoons oil to evenly coat. On a rimmed baking sheet, brush eggplant evenly with 2 tablespoons oil; season.
- Broil, flipping once, until eggplant is tender and golden brown on both sides, about 10 minutes a side. Top evenly with panko mixture (about 1/3 cup on each plank) and broil until panko turns crisp and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together lemon juice, paprika, and remaining 1/4 cup oil; stir in mint and season. Drizzle about half of dressing over eggplant. Squeeze tomatoes over bowl to release juices, then drop them into dressing and toss with arugula to evenly coat. Serve over eggplant, sprinkled with more paprika.

- Serve the soup with a dollop of crème fraîche or sour cream and a sprinkling of fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil, or thyme.
