It is believed to have been created in the 19th century in southern Italy, where eggplants were abundant. The dish gained popularity in the United States with the influx of Italian immigrants. Today, it is a staple in Italian-American cuisine and can be found on the menus of many Italian restaurants. For the best Vegetable Parmesan, look for fresh, high-quality vegetables and a flavorful marinara sauce.
