Japanese Eggplants

Japanese eggplants are a type of vegetable that has become increasingly popular in the US over the past few years. They come in several varieties, including long and slender, short and fat, and even purple-black. As with all vegetables, they have many nutritional benefits and make a great addition to any meal. Let’s take a closer look at why Japanese eggplants are so popular.

How Japanese Eggplants Differ from Other Varieties

They differ from other varieties in several ways. Firstly, they tend to be longer and skinnier than other types of eggplant, making them easy to cut into slices or cubes for cooking. Secondly, they are much less bitter than other varieties and have a milder flavor when cooked. Lastly, their texture is much firmer than other varieties which makes them ideal for grilling or roasting.

Nutritional Benefits

In addition to being tasty and easy to prepare, Japanese eggplants also offer several health benefits. They are high in fiber which helps with digestion; they contain vitamins A & C which help keep your skin healthy; and they are low in calories which can help with weight loss goals. Furthermore, since they contain antioxidants like anthocyanins (which give them their purple color), they can help fight inflammation and reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes and cancer.

Harvesting

If you’re looking to buy Japanese eggplant at the grocery store or farmers market, it’s important to know how to pick the best ones available. The best way is to choose ones that are firm but not too hard; those that have smooth skin free from blemishes; lastly, pick those that feel heavy for their size as this means that there is more moisture inside them (which will make them tastier).
