<< 1. Lay the eggplant slices on some paper towels and sprinkle with
  salt. Leave them to drain of their bitter juices for 30 minutes, then
  pat dry with more paper towels. >>

Personally I never do this, even though I always see in recipes that it is
the first step.  I don't think that eggplants are "bitter".  Besides, this
is too much trouble for me anyway, and "God" meant for us to eat the
eggplant "as it is".  Rob
