Meal 8: Eggplant Oddity.

Meal 8: Roasted eggplant w/miso dressing, sausages w/tomato sauce, creme Catalane


Well, I didn’t know it could be that way with eggplant. Roasted eggplant strips with a miso dressing — and served cold — pretty odd. Couldn’t find the Dashi Powder called for in the dressing, so I opted for “Japanese Soup base” bullion packets containing the usual suspects of seaweed, fish flake, and mushroom. Maybe I can get Dashi powder/base in Anchorage.

Otherwise, all the proportions were right, and the other two parts went without incident. Probably one of the most straightforward set of dishes yet.
