Question: do you have to refrigerate fresh eggplant?
Answer: Storage. Eggplants do not store well for long periods of time. ... If you don't intend to eat the eggplant within 2 days, it should be refrigerated. To refrigerate, wrap in a paper towel and place in a reusable container or perforated plastic bag in the crisper section of your refrigerator for use within 5 - 7 days.
