Eggplant with Soy and Miso

Spain is having a bit of an affair with Japanese cuisine. As expected in the cities, sushi bars and noodle joints abound. But traditional bars nod to Japan on the usual menu as well. Pot-stickers, teriyaki chicken, and tataki tuna have begun to be served as tapas alongside croquetas and jamón. This dish is a hybrid of sorts, where eggplant is a Spanish stalwart and soy and miso are straight out of Tokyo.
