Though the name means "eggplant in the style of Parma," a Northern Italian city, the dish originates in Southern Italy where eggplants, tomatoes, and olive oil are plentiful. In fact, real classic eggplant parm is made solely with mozzarella cheese—it doesn't necessarily have Parmesan at all

The type of cheese used, protein, number of eggs, all yolks? Whole eggs? Etc. Lotta variations. I'm good with all of them and have no strong opinion other than what is traditional.

Fair...only things I'm a fundamentalist about on carbonara is that it has to be dried pasta from semolina and not fresh pasta from AP, and guanciale is king. Pancetta is an emergency substitute, not a staple.
