Baby eggplants, also called baby aubergines, are small, tender vegetables with thin skin and mild flavor. They cook quickly and absorb flavors, making them ideal for grilling, roasting, braising, frying, and stews. Common in Mediterranean and Asian cuisines, baby eggplants work well in ratatouille, curries, and skewers. Store refrigerated and use within several days for best quality. Rinse before use.
