Is it better to peel or not peel braised eggplant?
I think eating with skin will taste better and the color will look good and nutritious.

Some people say that eggplant should be peeled and eaten, otherwise it tastes bad, and pesticide residues on it may also affect health.

In fact, peeling eggplant can remove pesticide residues and really enrich its cooking methods. But after peeling, the vitamin K rich in tomato skin is lost. Vitamin K can activate at least three kinds of protein beneficial to bone growth in human body, which is very beneficial to enhance the bone health of the elderly. Therefore, if you can ensure proper cleaning and cooking before eating, it is best not to peel eggplant.

In addition, eggplant is easy to turn black after peeling, because the trace element iron in it will be oxidized by air, which may affect the human body's absorption of iron. From this point of view, it is best not to eat without skin.
