It’s simply the best! More meaty than zucchini and hearty than peppers, it stands up to robust seasoning blends and develops a deep caramelized flavor over flame.I simply can’t get enough of it.Also known as aubergine in non-American English-speaking countries, melanzana in Italian, and berenjena in Spanish, this versatile veggie is enjoyed worldwide for good reason.
