"Very good southern comfort food. My whole family like it. However, I never did figure out why we browned the flour. (?) I did it because the recipe said to, but I did not notice any flavor difference than from regular flour. Anyhow, recipe was very good.""

"I did not care for this recipe. I thought I would love it because I love eggplant parmesan or anything eggplant for that matter. However, I was disappointed. The ricotta/ egg mixture just killed it to me. From now on, I will just stick with eggplant parmesan. I love Ina Garten & really enjoy most of her recipes so no offense to her personally""

Did the layers fall in at all? Do I need dowels?"
