Dengaku miso sauce with eggplant

Dengaku is a classic miso sauce for grilled eggplant. Yuhi Che has prepared this Japanese specialty using our poppy seed miso. Definitely worth trying!

 

Ingredients:

  • Eggplant – 1 piece
  • Poppy miso – 2 tablespoons
  • Water – 1 tablespoon
  • Mirin – 2 teaspoons

Method:

  1. Combine all ingredients except the eggplant in a saucepan over low heat.
  2. Turn off the heat as soon as the mixture starts to bubble.
  3. Cut the eggplant in half and score both the inside and outside to allow for even cooking.
  4. Heat oil in a pan, place the eggplant halves, and grill until browned on both sides over low to medium heat.
  5. Pour the miso sauce over the grilled eggplant.

Enjoy!
