Me: Thinks fondly about how much I like all my special burger techniques and how favourably they compare to the work of the people I think of as steak cultists. 
Me: How am I different from them? 
Me: Well, my techniques *work* for one. 
Me: I'm a member of *The Esoteric Order of the Burger.* Thank you very much.  
Made eggplant parmigiana, per the serious eats recipe for such (https://www.seriouseats.com/italian-style-eggplant-parmesan-melanzane-alla-parmigiana-recipe). Came out very greasy, like, "frying these eggplants soaked up like half a pint of oil" greasy. Should have been less of a coward, I think; twice as much oil at a higher temperature would have produced much less greasy food (but managing large amounts of hot oil is stressful, and temperature management is hard). Took the leftovers and fried them, spooning off the excess grease, and added cumin and chilli and an egg to make breakfast! Was tasty, still too greasy. Overall, good food, except for the thing where it was very very oily.

 Hmm, would people be interested if I tried posting recipes here? My mother way saying I should be writing down the stuff I'm cooking so I don't forget, and also I'd like feedback and suggestions and talking-about-cooking with people who aren't me. If only so I know how much salt to leave out when I'm cooking for someone who isn't me. It would probably be a pain because Writing is hard but IDK, it seems possible and would be helpful for me, probably.
