Eggplant – Grappoli sott'olio

Bewertet mit 4.7 von 5
SKU 0348 Categories: , , ,

Eggplant Grapes under olive oil (Solanum melongena) is a rare, traditional Italian variety, bred specifically for small, firm fruits, which are ideal for pickling "sott'olio" (in olive oil). Fruits grow in large clusters ("grappoli"), usually several together on one stalk. They are small, elongated or slightly pear-shaped, with smooth dark purple to almost black skin. The meat is firm, with few seeds, which is key when investing, as it maintains an excellent texture even after heat treatment.

The taste of fresh fruit is gentle, with a little bitterness, but it is best expressed in the traditional preparation: sliced, salted, lightly pressed and marinated in vinegar and olive oil with garlic, parsley and spices.

The plant is medium lush, well branched and grows to about 60–80 cm. Rims abundant, often in waves, and forms decorative clusters of numerous small fruits. It ripens medium early, tolerates heat well and is suitable for the garden, raised beds or larger pots.

The variety is suitable for outdoor cultivation. Because of homogeneous growth and high productivity It is also an excellent choice for professional growers.
