🍆We grow a few different varieties of eggplant, all three mild and highly versatile.
So, what's the difference between these beauts?🍆
👏Thanos Italian eggplant is similar in shape to the larger, more well known Globe. However, the Italian is smaller, slightly sweeter, and more tender with less seeds. It's delicate nature makes it a prime option for roasted or sautéed dishes, rather than baked or fried options.
🙌Turkish Delight eggplant are long, slender fruits with a dark skin & rounded end. This has minimal seeds with a mild flavor that becomes even milder after cooking. Some say this is the true inspo for the emoji...🤷🏾🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♀️
👐Japanese eggplant - Orient Express & Violet Delite, are slender, glossy fruit with very tender edible skin. The creamy flesh is virtually seedless and lacks any bitterness.
Although low in micro & macro nutrients, eggplant are exceptional at absorbing flavors, oils & liquids. This makes them natural companions to almost ANY cuisine!
