Cooking Basics
Eggplants - removing the calyx

Make a shallow slit around the entire stem without cutting it off. Use your hand to start peeling off the calyx from this slit and remove in one motion all the way around. When grilling, simmering or deep-frying whole, the calyx is often removed.
Eggplants - random cut


Cut off the stem, and rotate the eggplant as you cut up from one end.
