Meet Egbert.Egbert is an eggplant we got from Harvest.
Egbert, unlike every other eggplant in the world, had a nose.
It didn't bother him any.
He was able to rest sunglasses on it
as he sunbathed on the kitchen counter.
It was also very useful for playing the piano.
But after a week of enjoying his very pleasant company, we decided that Egbert was starting to overstay his welcome.
So on Sunday night we took out Jose Andres' beautiful Spanish tapas cookbook- a truly gorgeous work sure to inspire numerous dinner party dreams. We prepared a Catalan-style chicken stew, with plum tomatoes, chicken thighs, garlic cloves, a Spanish onion, green bell peppers, a zucchini, bay leaf, thyme..... and Egbert.
No picture of the stew unfortunately but rest assured that it was muy tasty.
We drank some rioja for our fallen homie.
