Now I can hardly wait, I have 8 eggplants in my garden this year, 5 I grew
from seed and 3 I bought as plants because I don't usually have much luck
growing from seed. All are looking pretty good this year and I hope to have
a good crop. All these recipies look great. Thanks.

Try the Oriental varieties such as Filipino Lavender or Neelamlong NOT ever
bitter! Also there is a difference in the bitterness of male and female
eggplants. Look at the bottom to differentiate.
