    I'm not familiar with liquid smoke. Is that something I could find in a "normal" grocery store? I've never seen such an item in a health food store. thanks, this recipe looks good.....

    This brand is the most "natural" brand though still NOT raw: http://www.colgin.com/public/lsfaq.aspx and can sometimes be found in health/natural food stores.

    There are some in regular stores as well, check the back of the bottle as some have shorter ingredients lists than others.

    I feel odd posting about this on here, but since it's already been brought up and I'm letting yall know as a disclaimer that it's not a raw product. This recipe can be made without this added ingredient, but for me (not being a purist) I like to add just a tiny bit, like a capful, to my marinade for that extra flavor boost. But I've been just as happy with using Nama Shoyu added to the recipe and then it's more like some sort of jerky.

    Hey Rawkinlocs-

    First of all, thanks for the feedback. I located some liquid smoke. Yeah, I agree with Alissa's approach to eating raw food concerning some of the flavorings like Nama Shoyu. I just don't know if I could eat raw if I didn't make it taste really good and little stuff like that helps immensely.


    Hey Anyone else have as much difficulty as I did simply trying to peel the thing in long strips? It wasn't as easy as I thought. Not that the shape matters, really. I've got some marinating now and I'm looking forward to my "bacon." I'm sure it will taste good to me. Since I'm eating all raw, anything raw tastes really really good, if you know what I mean!

    My sentiments exactly!

    As for peeling into long strips, I don't peel into strips, I just cut slices and then I cut the wide slices in half to make sorta strips.

    this is interesting. i've never had eggplant. i didnt know you can eat it raw. you have to peel the eggplant right? would this recipe work okay without a dehydrator since i dont have one?

    Rawkinlocs,

    I make this about once a week as it's one of my favourite recipes and I never take the seeds out of remove the skin either. Also I use your tip and use Braggs (we don't have Nama Soyu here) for the Ume Plum Vinegar part and it's so good.

    Davylp25,

    Make this pronto, it is insanely good and you will be wondering why you haven't tried it sooner. I can't stop eating this. About to make some now.
