That takes out most of the bitterness. Indian Brinjals are not usually bitter unless they very young when harvested. Try the soaking method, might work for you too. Enjoy.FHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16120251231228218853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31099668.post-3542757496118845462008-10-21T06:39:00.000-04:002008-10-21T06:39:00.000-04:00I really like your blog..
