Japanese Eggplant
$13.50
Gently cooked Japanese eggplant finished with sweet miso sauce for a soft, savory, lightly sweet, and beautifully balanced first bite.
Japanese Eggplant with Sweet Miso in Encino
Japanese eggplant is gently cooked until tender, allowing its delicate texture to absorb a rich sweet miso sauce. The result is a warm appetizer with savory depth, subtle sweetness, and a smooth finish that makes an elegant beginning before sushi, sashimi, or omakase.
Tender Texture, Sweet Miso & Rich Umami
The eggplant's soft texture carries the miso's comforting sweetness and deep umami, creating a satisfying Japanese appetizer. Pair it with sake, Japanese beer, crisp white wine, green tea, or other warm and cold dishes at Mizumi Sushi in Encino.
