Eggplant typically takes 60-90 days to mature, depending on the variety. They are a warm-weather crop and are best planted in the late spring or early summer. They are known for their glossy, deep purple skin and large, oval or elongated shape. They have a mild, slightly bitter flavor and are a popular ingredient in many cuisines, particularly in Mediterranean, Asian, and Indian dishes. They can be grilled, sautéed, or baked, and are a great source of fiber, potassium, and antioxidants. They are typically grown in the ground and are known for their high yield and disease resistance.
