Sicilian Eggplants
This dish was inspired by Yalda's trip to Sicily.
So many civilizations have settled there over the centuries, leaving – amongst other things- the most amazing culinary heritage.
A lot of the food reminded Yalda of her mother’s country, Morocco, and, more specifically, the city of Fez. She couldn’t believe how similar their pastries, “dolci sicilliani” were to her maternal grandmother’s. Looking into it further, she realized that the cities of Granada in Spain, Fez in Morocco, Palermo in Sicily, and Tlemcen in Algeria were all part of al-Andalus, i.e., Andalusian cities, where language and culinary traditions were very similar.
