Eggplant Parmesan
Use Dehydrated Eggplant for this delicious Eggplant Parmesan
Eggplant Parmesan is a family favorite especially in the fall when eggplant is plentiful. I like to slice some and dehydrate it to have on hand year round.
- 3 eggplant, peeled and thinly sliced. (If you are using dehydrated eggplant slices, Re-hydrate them for 1+ hours in water just enough to cover.)
- 1/3 Cup flour
- salt & Pepper to taste
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 4 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs
- 6 cups spaghetti sauce, divided
- 1-16 oz pkg mozzarella cheese, shredded and divided
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
- 1/2 t dried basil
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C)
If re-hydrating, remove your eggplant from the water. Dip into flour seasoned with salt and pepper
Dip in egg and then in seasoned bread crumbs. Place in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 15 – 20minutes on each side or until browned
In a 9×13 inch baking dish spread spaghetti sauce to cover the bottom. Place a layer of eggplant slices in the sauce. Add half of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Repeat with remaining ingredients, ending with the cheeses. Sprinkle basil on top
Bake in preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until golden brown

Drying Horseradish
Horseradish can be dried either sliced or grated, as outlined below:
EQUIPMENT REQUIRED:
Food processor with a slicing attachment OR cutting board and a good, sharp kitchen knife OR A strong cheese grater vegetable grater trays
For drying the horseradish outdoors:
Wood with wooden slats placed close together, for outdoors
Indoors in your oven:
Metal cookie sheets lined with parchment paper for your oven
METHOD:
1. Slice the clean, peeled horseradish root, either in the food processor or with the knife and cutting board, into uniform thickness.
NOTE: You can also grate the Horseradish in preparation for drying.
2. Spread out in a single layer on the wooden racks or parchment paper on the cookie sheets and place in either heat source. If using an oven, set the temperature at the lowest temperature, or, in the event of a gas stove, the pilot light heat should be sufficient.
3. Place the trays in the sun or in your oven and check occasionally to turn and check on the dryness of the Horseradish pieces.
4. When the Horseradish pieces are dry the discs will be brittle to the touch. Remove from the heat source and allow to cool. Store in a dark container or in a dark cupboard or pantry in a tightly sealed jar.
NOTE: If you have a vacuum sealer, the dried horseradish can be sealed into a vacuum bag and stored in the freezer, or, if your sealer came with a jar sealer, place the dried horseradish into a jar with the appropriate lid and vacuum seal the jar. Place the screw ring onto the top of the lid and tighten to "finger tight". Store in a dark cupboard or pantry away from direct light.
