Overview
Puangyok Thai Pea is a Thai pea eggplant, bearing clusters of tiny fruit that resemble cherry tomatoes on the plant. The fruit is crisp and bitter, a flavor prized in Thai curries and chili relishes, and is best picked while still light green, because it turns tough and overly bitter as it ages. Give it a long, hot season and full sun.
