Heirloom Eggplant Seeds
Heirloom eggplants are renowned for their rich, distinct flavour profiles. Unlike the mild taste of many hybrid varieties, heirloom eggplants often have a more complex, earthy flavour, with slight bitterness and a creamy texture when cooked. Varieties like the Melanzana Rossa di Rotonda offer a unique blend of sweetness and tanginess, reminiscent of tomatoes and peppers. These eggplants are ideal for grilling, roasting, or sautéing, as they absorb marinades and seasonings well, making them perfect for dishes like ratatouille, baba ganoush, or eggplant parmigiana. Their flavour intensifies with cooking, offering a deeply satisfying culinary experience.
