Beautiful purple and white striped skin. Creamy, less bitter flesh. Stunning charred on the BBQ.
Flavour
Creamy texture with a mild, less bitter flavour than typical aubergines, making it exceptionally smooth when cooked.
In the kitchen
Ideal for charring whole or sliced on the BBQ, where its skin crisps beautifully and flesh softens to a smoky, luscious finish.
Growing
Prefers warm, well-drained soil and full sun; requires consistent watering and staking due to its upright growth habit.
