In a large saute pan over moderate heat, bring the stock to a boil. Add the onions and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Add the celery and cook for 5 minutes. Add the tomato puree, vinegar, and sugar, and simmer a few minutes. Stir in ther eserved eggplant, capers, and raisins and warm through. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve at room temperature. This can be made a few days ahead of time. Bring to room temperature for serving, check seasoning, and add vinegar and salt if desired.
