ABOUT NATIONAL EGGPLANT MONTH
National Eggplant Month occurs in July and promotes eggplant's culinary versatility and nutritional benefits, encouraging people to incorporate it into their diets. It is an unofficial event with no sponsor.
History of Eggplant
Eggplant (Solanum melongena), or aubergine, is a species in the nightshade family (Solanaceae). Its origins trace back to Asia, most likely India and China, where it has been cultivated for thousands of years.
The earliest written records of eggplant come from ancient Chinese texts dating back to the 5th century. From there, it spread to the Middle East, Africa, and eventually Europe, where the Arabs introduced it during the Middle Ages. In Europe, eggplant was initially met with suspicion due to its relation to other nightshade plants, some of which are toxic. However, Europeans widely embraced eggplant in the 18th century. Early European settlers brought it to the Americas, which has since become a staple in various regional cuisines.
