Simiar to M, I stumbled upon your blog while searching on where to buy Marca Piña queso de bola. Thank you for sharing all of your discoveries. Back on topic, I thought I'd post one of my first lessons with charring eggplant. I was with my fianceé at the time and I was really craving eggplant with vinegar and garlic. I had bought eggplants at the grocery store and had put them in the oven for charring (I was in an apartment at the time). After 10 or so minutes, we heard a loud thud. I thought something had fallen out of the cabinet in the kitchen, but I couldn't find anything. I finally opened the oven and found that the eggplant had exploded and its guts was all over the oven. We had a good laugh about what happened, and it was surely shared with my in-laws to be. I will definitely cut slits or poke holes in the eggplant before charring them for this recipe.

This is a nice and very helpful post! I'm not Filipino, but grew up in Batangas and this reminds me of childhood dishes (I hated it then but have come to love it very much now). By a twist of fate, my partner is from the Phils although he's lived in Australia since his teens and I have been intending to cook his childhood favourites. So your blog will definitely be helpful!

Except instead of sweet paprike, she uses hot paprika to make it a bit spicy. MM, my mom’s tortang talong is very similar to the second one you made.
