 The deep black violet color of the eggplants do have a mystic impression to me. The skin is glossy and bright. When I see them in the store they always have my attention. Eggplants are not easy to cook. A good meal must bring the taste to the point otherwise I do not like it. Sometimes eggplants are too oily or too dry. By checking a new taste, I found the right combination for eggplants. Why not combine the sweetness of the coconut with the freshness of the eggplant?
