No, more of a bean base.  Not super hot bit had garlic.  Odd jar with a round
front and a flat back.  Came with a green or red label (was shown to use the
red one for that recipe).  If it helps, in some parts of asia, a green label
means hotter than the red one.

Doubtful that one had eggplant but it would be a good mix item with it.

Potential is always there!  She's into simple cooking stuff as far as i know
now.  Before I leftfor Pensacola, i dropped off some fresh rosemary on
another who also could use it.  The rosemary 'bush' is healthier for regular
pruning.
