Eggplant with Miso Sauce

Zojirushi Recipe – Eggplant with <i>Miso</i> Sauce

Miso is a type of paste, typically made of soy and salt that is used in many traditional Japanese dishes. Miso sauce is one of the most basic and useful sauces in Japanese cuisine. The miso sauce in this recipe can be made with any color miso paste, but shiromiso has a milder flavor than akamiso, and will definitely go well with eggplants.
