Grilled Eggplant Wedges with Mugi Miso is a delicious Japanese-inspired dish that is made by grilling eggplant wedges until they're tender and slightly charred, and then coating them with a flavorful sauce made from Mugi Miso.
Cut the eggplants into wedges, about 1 inch thick. Brush them with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
Grill the eggplant wedges for about 3-4 minutes per side or until they're soft and charred.
In a small saucepan, mix together the Mugi Miso, mirin, sake, sugar, and soy sauce. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the mixture thickens and becomes glossy (about 5-7 minutes).
Once the eggplant wedges are done, transfer them to a plate and drizzle the miso glaze over them.
Serve hot. Enjoy!
Mugi Miso is a type of miso paste made from fermented barley and soybeans.
