Grower: Pitt Eggplants, also known as aubergines, are a type of nightshade vegetable that is commonly used in a variety of cuisines around the world. They are native to Southeast Asia and are now widely cultivated in many countries, including Europe, North America, and Australia.

Eggplants are characterised by their distinctive shape and shiny, purple skin. They have a mild, slightly bitter flavour and a spongy texture that makes them a versatile ingredient in many dishes, including stir-fries, stews, soups, and casseroles. They are also commonly used in vegetarian dishes as a meat substitute due to their meaty texture.

In terms of nutrition, eggplants are low in calories and a good source of fibre, vitamins B1, B6, and C, as well as minerals like potassium and magnesium. They are also rich in phytochemicals, such as chlorogenic acid and nasunin, which have potent antioxidant properties.

When selecting eggplants, look for those that are firm to the touch, with smooth and shiny skin, and no signs of bruising or discoloration. They can be stored in a cool, dark place for up to a week, but for best results, it is recommended to use them as soon as possible after purchase.

Eggplants can be cooked in many different ways, including grilling, roasting, sautéing, and baking. They can also be eaten raw, but they may have a bitter taste and tough texture. To reduce bitterness, it is recommended to salt the sliced eggplant before cooking, which will help to draw out excess moisture and improve its flavour.

In conclusion, eggplants are a nutritious and versatile food that can be enjoyed in a variety of dishes and cooking styles, making them a popular choice in many different cuisines around the world.
