Eggplant description |
---|
Eggplant (Solanum melongena) is a species in the nightshade family (Solanaceae) grown for its edible fruit. Although eggplant is the common name in many countries, in British English, it is called aubergine, and in South Asia and South Africa, brinjal.The spongy, absorbent fruit of the plant is widely used in cooking in many different cuisines, and is often considered as a vegetable, although it is a berry fruit by botanical definition. As a member of the genus Solanum, it is related to the tomato and the potato. Like the tomato, its skin and seeds can be eaten. But, like the potato, it is not advisable to eat it raw. * It was originally domesticated from the wild nightshade species, the thorn or bitter apple, S. incanum, probably with two independent domestications, one in South Asia and one in East Asia. |
