oops, that's the problem of predictive text on the tablet! Mind you it might taste better than soya milk you know!


please feel free. we have done our weekly shopping already and aubergine did not feature in it, so I can't try it.

I did find this wonderful piece of information about raw aubergine



And there is a great deal of information on the aubergine here - http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/howto/guide/ingredient-focus-aubergines
I feel that there might be the need for an article on aubergines :whistling:

I'm in the middle of doing a bit of a write up on aubergines to publicise the challenge. I found the same info!

Vegetables in the [B said:
nightshade family[/B] contain anywhere from 2 to 13mg of solanine and eggplants contain 11mg at the most. So you would have to eat 36 raw eggplants to cause any harm. Therefore, there's no need to be concerned about eating reasonable amounts of raw eggplant.

Is the almond milk enough to mask the vegetable taste of the aubergine? Is it not bitter on the taste considering that there is no cooking made on it? I wonder how the texture is going to be like? gooey or slimy that makes me wanna ,,,,

I just saw this :eek: lots of interesting shakes on here lately, it seems - potato and aubergine, definitely two ingredients I would have never thought to use in a shake!

Just post one or two of the recipes that were not well received. I'll make them and report back (as long as they don't include raw eggplant!).

They were mostly my own creations and a lot of stir frying. Nothing to write home about but almost always included soy sauce, curry, onions and whatever I felt might pass the test. Then I have had it with roti as well. It's not that popular around here. Guyanese living here are the ones who probably swear by it.
