Mitoyo Eggplant
When sliced thick and grilled, the inside of the skin becomes melt-in-your-mouth tender; topped with bonito flakes and ponzu, it releases an explosion of savory umami. With just one bite, you will be surprised by a thickness that differs from ordinary eggplants. Mitoyo Eggplant is a plump variety grown in Mitoyo City, Kagawa Prefecture. They are about three times the size of standard Senryo eggplants, weighing between 300 to 400 grams each. The skin is thin, and the flesh is fine-grained and succulent, becoming melt-in-your-mouth soft when heated. This allows flavors to soak in deeply, making their deliciousness stand out when prepared as dengaku or grilled eggplant. A large, juicy local vegetable that brings joy to the summer dining table. Please try enjoying a melting slice while it is still hot.
