Okay, you can’t get a good tomato yet but still, I love Alexandra’s simple, most delicious sandwich.

Somewhere along the line I lost a taste for roasted peppers. Same with sundried tomatoes and even balsamic vinegar. Well, I didn’t cool on the balsamic for long (I was just tired of it being overused) while I’ve never regained a desire to eat sundried tomatoes. But roasted peppers really are delicious and it was the long break away from them that made me realize how much I enjoy them.

Who better than the Goddess Alexandra to bring it all back home?

Sure, this is out-of-season but hell, you can still find a decent eggplant around. And damn, if this just wouldn’t hit the spot right about now. Alexandra Cooks does Chez Panisse’s Eggplant, caramelized onion and tomato pasta.

Diggum Smack.
