    Prepare a 2.5 quart size bowl filled half way with water and 2 tbs of white vinegar.

  3. 3

    Slice peppers and put into pan to sauté until fragrant and tender.

  7. 7

    Pour in dutch oven.

  8. 8

    Drain eggplants and layer in a colander sprinkling lightly with sea salt in between the layers.

  9. 9

    Cover with a plate and add weight to push out moister.(approximately 20 minutes)

  10. 10

    Meanwhile, slice squash, chop tomatoes and finely chop garlic.

  11. 11

    Once the eggplant has released the liquid, with a paper towel wipe away the salt and dab up any remaining moister.

  12. 12

    Add eggplants to pan to sauté with a Tbs of olive oil.
