Asian Veggies - Names?

I am making my first attempt to grow a vegetable known to me only as "bitter eggplant". I saved seed stock from produce purchased from the local farmer's market last year. The seedlings are tiny at this point. (I did not secure a garden spot until the first week of May) The fruit grows to slightly lager than Jumbo eggs, is green and ripens to yellow-orange or yellow-red, depending on variety. I always find it on the market by mid August to frost.

Is anybody familiar with this plant and if so what is it called other than "bitter eggplant"?
