Most eggplants produce a bitter-tasting alkaloid. A method for removing this unwanted flavor is to sprinkle the slices with salt and let them rest in a colander for an hour. Afterwards, rinces the slices under cold water, gently squeezing out the moisture. Pressing on the slice also collapses the eggplant’s air pockets, reducing the absorption of oil during frying.
