Season calendar
The eggplant season in the Canary Islands runs from May to October. The highest production season is from June to August.
Eggplant is a vegetable that can be grown all year round in the Canary Islands, but from May to October, eggplant can be found in Canarian markets at a lower price and with better quality.
- May to October: This is the optimal growing season for eggplant in the Canary Islands. During these months, the eggplant is fresher, crunchier and full of nutrients. It is also more affordable than eggplant imported from other countries.
- November to April: Eggplant is still available in these months, but the quality and price may not be as good. Eggplant imported from other countries may be more expensive and not have the same flavor as locally grown eggplant.
Selection tips
Here are some tips for choosing a good eggplant:
- The skin should be smooth and shiny.
- The eggplant should be firm, but not too hard.
- If the eggplant is too green, it is not ripe. If the eggplant is too yellow, it is too ripe.
- The stem of the eggplant should be green and firm.
- If the stem of the eggplant is dry or wilted, the eggplant is not fresh.
Conservation
Keep the aubergines in a cool place, that is, in the fridge, better than at room temperature and out of direct sunlight.

Fresh, with a perfect texture and a super authentic flavor. I baked them with a touch of oil and salt, and they were spectacular! You can tell the quality.
