Introducing our Pingtung Eggplant, a variety of eggplant that has its roots in Taiwan. These eggplants boast long, lavender fruits that are sure to catch the eye in any garden. The plants themselves are known for their resilience against diseases and their overall vigor. We recommend harvesting the fruits when they are young, around 4 inches in length, for their tender flesh that is perfect for making Asian soups or grilling whole. And the best part? The skin is completely edible, so you won't miss out on any of the delicious flavor. Try our Pingtung Eggplant today and elevate your culinary creations.
