This was great! So flavorful & hearty my husband didn't even comment about there being no meat on his plate! I alternated the eggplant & mushrooms evenly and my one eggplant made 4, foot long rosemary skewers. We each had 1 served with a side salad and w/wheat fettucini tossed in a light puttanesca - 1/31/09

I rinse herbs to keep the risk of botulism down, and wondered if rinsing these stalks would be enough. They do heat up, I'm sure, but is it enough, or is there a risk. The recepe sounds absolutely delish. I used to throw rosemary stalks on the grill over the coals and it flavored the chicken. - 8/18/10
