    Made this over the weekend and couldn't stop eating it out of the skillet on little pieces of bread.
    I have another Caponata recipe that I have made for years but it is an all day process. This recipe was quick, easy and had a fabulous depth of flavor. I added some chopped calamata olives to the mix.

    Thanks Giada for a great treat. This recipe also works with those of us on Weight Watchers!

    Totally amazing, even the meat lovers of my family loved it. Added a touch more salt and few extra raisins for sweetness. so good. Definitely will make again and again!

    I made a double batch so that I'd have it ready to go for another meal. When I tasted it before making the panini I was afraid it was going to be too sweet and tangy, but once on the bread it all balanced out and was really good! This is a keeper! Yum!

    After I saw Giada make this, I went out and bought a panini press. I made a bunch of paninis and brought the to a playdate at the park..They were so good! The only substitution I made was I used sliced kalamata olives in place of raisins, since I don't like to cook with raisins. But still so delicious!

    I followed this recipe exactly and it sounded so good, but I have to say that it was just way too sweet for me. It even had a too sour taste as well. I just didn't enjoy it at all and I ended up tossing it.

    I loved this so much. I made it and served as a side dish and my husband loved it.
    I made the sandwiches the next day and it was really good also. It tastes better the next day!!!

    I didn't have a panini grill on hand so I stuck it in the oven under the broiler with a heavy press and it worked very well!
    My kids love this as a yummy lunch or snack! I stirred in a little bit of sausage for protein and didn't get to use capers (didn't have any of this on hand either. The kids have no clue there's eggplant in the recipe and request it quite often.
    Thank you Giada!

    This caponata was so easy to pull together and enjoy as a take-along lunch, or as a dinner. The sourness of the vinegar is balanced by the sugar while still allowing some of the tang to come through.
    Mmmmmm try this recipe because even if you're not eggplant's biggest fan, this will turn you into an enthusiast. ...
    maybe.

    I hate eggplant! But I loved this!! My wife and daughter raved about it also! Here's my tip - I doubled the recipe and used half for the paninis. To the unused portion I added another 28 oz. of diced tomatoes and cooked it down some more until iit thickened a bit. This is one of the most wonderful pasta sauces you'll ever make!

    I was a little nervous about making this because eggplant is completely foreign to me. However, I decided to give it a try because of all the rave reviews and I'm glad that I did! I'm super-excited to be able to incorporate more veggies in mine and my husband's diet. I highly suggest trying this recipe (eggplants aren't as scary as you might think!
