My First Eggplant
The first eggplant that I’ve ever grown was eaten on Friday, September 26th, 2008. It started out looking like this:
And then it became oven-roasted eggplant slices with an asian-inspired tahini sauce. (Sorry, no after photos - it didn’t last long enough!) I think it was pretty tasty, but I’m not sure that it was actually that fabulous. I was kind of caught up in the “I grew it myself” moment, so it might have just been kind of “meh”. I couldn’t even tell you.

I love eggplant but I’ve never tried to grow it. Looks great!

That color is great…makes me think of Steel Magnolias: “Would you call this color ‘grape’ or ‘aubergine’?”
