Re: japanese recipes - Japanese eggplant (repost)

 

This is one of my favorite eggplant recipes, and it is Japanese.

 

 

JAPANESE EGGPLANT WITH LIGHT MISO, GINGER AND SESAME

 

Use the skinny japanese or italian eggplants

 

6 eggplants

 

dark sesame oil (1 tsp)

 

2 tbsp light colored miso paste

 

2 tbsp grated ginger root

 

1 tbsp sesame seeds

 

 

Rub a little oil on the outside of the whole eggplants (do not take

skins off) Grill or broil eggplants until almost done. Take out of

the fire and make a slit on them (do not peel). Mix the miso and

grated ginger together, add the dark sesame oil, and stuff a little

of this paste lenghtwise into the slits that you made in the

eggplants.

 

If you are using the rounder eggplants like Rosa Bianca, then simply

cut them in half length wise and bake or broil this way. Add the miso

mixture on the cut surface.

 

Sprinkle with sesame seeds and broil until the seeds are

golden.

 

This is so easy and tastes really decandent for some reason. One of

our favorite ways to consume the eggplants we are growing.
