Ember Baked Chinese Eggplant

Price on request • 1 item

This dish showcases Angler's signature open-hearth cooking, featuring slender Chinese eggplant baked directly in the intense heat of embers. The eggplant emerges incredibly tender and smoky, with a silky, almost custard-like interior. It is typically dressed with a sophisticated blend of savory, aromatic, and often slightly sweet and spicy elements, such as a soy-ginger glaze, fermented chili paste, black garlic, or a fragrant vinaigrette. The ember baking process imbues the eggplant with a profound depth of flavor and a beautifully charred, smoky aroma, transforming a humble vegetable into a rich and compelling side dish or appetizer.
