Food: Eggplant

How Much: 4 cups peeled and diced

Why: It’s peeled because we want it to fully collapse when cooking, and the skin can be a nuisance in creamy, fully cooked eggplant.

Food: Kosher Salt

How Much: ½ teaspoon

Why: To season the eggplant and draw out some water before cooking. The “it draws out bitterness” thing? Not so much.

Food: Olive Oil

How Much: 2 tablespoons

Why: It’s peppery, vegetal, and flavorful. Eggplant likes that.

Food: Yellow Onion

How Much: 1 cup diced

Why: For some body and some textural contrast.

Food: Garlic Cloves

How Much: 4, sliced

Why: It’s a mouthfeel and visual thing.

Food: Sugar

How Much: 1 tablespoon

Why: Some will char a bit. Some will caramelize. Some will dissolve.

Food: Sherry Vinegar

How Much: 2 tablespoons

Why: Sherry vinegar has a deep, layered flavor, and a just- perfect acidity.

Food: Fresh Thyme

How Much: 2 teaspoons minced

Why: Where there is sherry vinegar, bring thyme.

Food: Whole-Grain Artisan-Style Bread

How Much: 8 (½-inch-thick) slices, cut in half

Why: With the walnuts in the formula, the complexity of whole grain is welcome.

Food: Walnuts

How Much: ½ cup large pieces

Why: Broiled, they give a campfire quality to the dish.

Food: Fresh Flat-Leaf Parsley

How Much: ¼ cup chopped

Why: The ubiquitous, yet perfectly appropriate fresh finish.

Food: Fresh Pecorino Romano Cheese

How Much: 2 teaspoons grated

Why: A tad saltier than Parmigiano-Reggiano, plus the walnuts give this all the nuttiness the dish needs.
