This solanaceous berry came to Europe from Persia, and because of the difficulties of translation, it was often called a crazy apple. Eggplant came to Russia from the Caucasus, which is why it had the nickname “Armenian cucumber” for a long time. Properly dried eggplant has a bright aroma and taste of mushrooms. This feature makes it an indispensable component in dishes with stewed vegetables or in any roast.
