The eggplant is a vegetable fruit that is colored violet and has a superb appearance. It gives flavor and character to many recipes and is one of the least calorie-dense fresh vegetables. Eggplants are a good source of fiber and vitamins, and they contain phytonutrients that may help protect against some chronic diseases.

Since its high water content, eggplant is able to absorb a very high concentration of minerals. Its high potassium content offers medicinal benefits, including the reduction of fluid retention, and is of interest because of the zinc and magnesium it supplies. Because it turns delicate and fluffy after being properly cooked, this vegetable fruit is also very easy to digest. In this area, its fibers have the most impact on bowel movements. A little olive oil, a little garlic, and maybe a little parmesan for flavor and aficionados of Italian heritage, and you've got yourself a truly nutritious cuisine, taken from the famed Mediterranean diet.

If you are an eggplant lover, then this cookbook, "Unique Eggplant Recipes from Around the World," is definitely for you. It is packed with delicious and unusual recipes that will tantalize your taste buds and have you coming back for more. From starters to main courses, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
