Do Eggplants Have Egg-Like Liquid?

Published in Eggplant Properties 1 min read

While eggplants do not contain actual animal egg-like liquid, the fluid found inside them can visually resemble an egg white when the fruit is prepared in a certain way.

What the Reference Says

According to the provided video reference, eggplants hold more liquid inside than one might initially expect. This liquid is contained within the plant's cells.

The reference specifically states:

  • Eggplants have a significant amount of liquid inside their cells.
  • If enough of these cells are burst.
  • Then the eggplant is cut open.
  • The released liquid looks surprisingly like an egg white.

This similarity is based on the appearance of the fluid released from the plant's cells, not on its composition being the same as an actual egg white.
