Method
- Make a cut around the stem end of each eggplant and remove the calyx. Prick the surface of the skin with a bamboo skewer. Place the eggplants on a grill rack and grill, turning occasionally, until the entire surface is charred, about 8 minutes over fairly strong direct heat.
- Dip briefly in ice water, then remove immediately and peel off the skin. Chill in the refrigerator.
- Mix together the black sesame miso sauce seasonings, then adjust the thickness with water.
- Tear the grilled eggplant into 5-6cm lengths and arrange in a serving dish. Spoon the black sesame miso sauce over the eggplant and garnish with grated ginger.
