Overview

Culinary figures and media outlets are highlighting creative ways to prepare eggplant. Chef Masahiro Kasahara of the Japanese restaurant Sanpi Ryoron has gained attention for his ‘eggplant kabayaki’ recipe, which uses boiling, slicing, and pan-frying to mimic the texture and appearance of eel as a cost-effective alternative during periods of high food prices.

Other trends include simple, microwave-based preparations such as spicy namul, eggplant with green onion and ponzu, and eggplant marinated in white dashi.
