About Berenjena
Berenjena, known as eggplant in English, is a versatile fruit often treated as a vegetable in cooking. Originally believed to have been domesticated in Southeast Asia, it now plays a central role in cuisines worldwide, including Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, Indian, and East Asian dishes. This glossy, deep purple produce is low in calories and high in fiber, making it ideal for supporting digestion and weight management. It contains essential nutrients like vitamins C and K, folate, and potassium, as well as antioxidants such as nasunin, which may protect brain cell membranes and combat free radicals. Eggplants are naturally fat-free but readily absorb oil during cooking, which can increase caloric density depending on preparation methods. Grilled, roasted, or baked, berenjena is a healthy addition to meals, offering both flavor and nutrition. Its mild taste pairs well with robust sauces and spices, making it a culinary favorite across cultures.
