Upon tasting it, we were enchanted by the soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture and the smooth, almost squash-like eggplant flavor that came to life amidst the bright, savory-sweetness of the tomatoes and onions. Our tasting panel was taken by surprise—these wondrous, not-at-all-bitter eggplants really came from a can? Really? Really.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrecian Style Eggplant with Tomatoes \u0026amp; Onions is made for us in Bulgaria, where the eggplant is grown, by our famed Greek Dolmas producers. (They have a production facility in that Southeastern European country, so the eggplant can be cooked immediately upon harvest from the fields.) Whole, long, narrow eggplants—har- vested at the height of the season—are split in half lengthwise and stewed in a rich, flavorful “sauce” of tomatoes and onions. Seasoned with parsley, garlic, red pepper and curry powder, and canned with soy oil, the gently- flavored, purple fruits of the nightshade family blossom with seductive, Mediterranean essence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe eggplant halves unfurl from the can, impressively intact. Place them on a plate for a ready-to-enjoy (room temp or warmed) edible. Serve them as a side to roasted lamb and rice, or as a salad with fresh green bell peppers and feta. Broil with a little cheese and coarsely chop to create a delicious and unique pasta topping.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kate's Crates","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43522825257002,"sku":null,"price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/8348\/2666\/files\/webp-1280_1d63a701-439a-48eb-93a9-df8afe51f436.webp?v=1757360371","url":"https:\/\/katescrates.myshopify.com\/products\/grecian-style-eggplant-with-tomatoes-onions","provider":"Kate's Crates","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
