Koryo Town Eggplant

Glossy, dark, and succulent—these are the eggplants of Koryo Town. Growing under the gentle climate of the Yamato Basin, Koryo Town's eggplants soak up plenty of sunlight to produce fruit with soft skin and juicy flesh. Freshly harvested specimens are lined up at local farm stands. When grilled, you can enjoy a melt-in-your-mouth texture and natural sweetness. As tempura, they become fluffy and fragrant. When simmered (nibitashi), they soak up the dashi for a burst of flavor. Even as pickles, the softness of the skin stands out. The simpler the dish, the more the deliciousness of these locally grown eggplants shines through. Please enjoy this bounty from the fields of Nara, perfect for brightening your summer dining table.
