Eggplant
Although grown and treated as a vegetable, botanically, eggplant is actually a perennial fruit, (agriculturally grown as an annual) as it bears seeds within its body; it is classified as a berry.
Globe eggplants are the most common, Western market variety. They have glossy, black-purple skin, are oval and oblong in shape, often growing up to 10 inches long and wider at the blossom end. They have a characteristic green calyx and a green stem or a leaf shooting out from the base of the stem, wrapping around the top of the smooth-skinned fruit. The flesh is cream colored with a spongy-firm texture.
