About Miso-glazed eggplant

Miso-Glazed Eggplant is a flavorful dish that originates from Japanese cuisine, known for its balance of sweet, salty, and umami flavors. This dish features eggplant, a nutrient-rich vegetable high in fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins like vitamin C and B6. The eggplant is halved, scored, and roasted until tender, then brushed with a glaze made from miso paste, soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and sesame oil. Miso, a fermented soybean product, is rich in probiotics that support gut health and contains essential minerals such as zinc and manganese. While the dish is relatively low in calories, the glaze includes added sugars and sodium, so moderation is key for those monitoring these nutrients. Served as a side or main dish, Miso-Glazed Eggplant is a delicious and wholesome option that showcases the depth of Japanese culinary tradition.
