Eggplant 'Meatball' F1

  • Product number: 015186
  • Origin: South Asia
  • Latin: Solanum melongena

The largest and thickest Aubergine we know! They can easily reach a diameter of 10-15 cm, and the flesh remains firm and full of flavour, just as an aubergine should be. Aubergines are very popular in vegetarian cuisine these days; such an enormous vegetable "meatball" is a welcome addition!

Names:
Latin: Solanum melongena
Dutch: Aubergine
Also: Melanzane
