Beautiful Inside Out

A firm flesh. A beautifully shiny skin. We are talking about the eggplant of course, aka aubergine, aka Guinea squash. Whether a deliciously tangy Baba Ghanoush is your go-to comfort dish. Or a stylish aubergine caviar to fancy up your 'entrées'. It is the very same versatile Solanum Melongena, or eggplant, native to Southeast Asia, that makes possible the two, and so many more dishes.

The beautifully called teardrop in her black or purple robe is the one you're probably most familiar with. Our local growers would love to introduce you to her cousins; the long, the slim, and the melon-shaped. They come in white, green, pink, orange, and some in striped skin... think of us as a body inclusive bunch

But what's looks without substance you may ask. And it's perfectly pertinent to do so. Once you see the passion of our local farmers for their generous land. Once you experience this passion met by Silal Fresh committed support with the latest in agri-tech solutions and class-A handling, in this common quest for the perfect eggplant, made available to you Farm-To-Shelf in 24 hours of harvesting. You will know it's never one or the other.
