Eggplant
I’m not ready yet!
Eggplant is a star ingredient in many Meditterranean and Middle Eastern dishes. Known for its smoky and rich flavour, eggplant can be prepared in numerous ways from grilling and roasting. As a standalone ingredient, it can be transformed into baba ghanoush perfect for dipping flatbreads, or even eggplant parmigiana. Eggplant shines in curries, pasta dishes, moussaka – the list is endless!
To pick:
Eggplant is ready to pick when it reaches a mature size and has a glossy appearance. To harvest, use a sharp knife or set of pruners to cut the vegetable from the plant, leaving a short stem attached.
I took a minimum of 60 days to be ready for harvest!
Please be mindful that this garden is a shared space.
Kindly only pick what you will consume at the time of harvest.
