Eggplant has been so incredibly productive this year. We got eggplant early and because of that I expected it to be done by August. But, it has continued to produce into late September and shows no sign of letting up. With the Italian Eggplant (the most common type of eggplant you see in American supermarkets) we like to pick the fruit early before too many seeds form which can be bitter.
I bought a cookbook about Italian cuisine from the region of Puglia (the heel) and found a variation on one of our all time favorite eggplant dishes, eggplant balls! If you have eggplant in your garden, give it a try because I know that if you grow eggplant, you have tons of extra and are wondering what to do with it!
