Eggplant, Aubergine Melanzane a’Scarpone Recipe

February 11, 2022

While this recipe is not typically Provencal, aubergine (eggplant) and tomatoes are plentiful in the region, and we highly recommend trying this vegetarian dish. While we will always love a variety of meats, poultry, and seafood, we add more vegetarian options for our health! Melanzane a’Scarpone is one of our favourite Italian-inspired dishes.

Tarte Tatin aux Pommes a French Classic
