Nasu (Eggplant)

Although nasu is a summer season vegetable, it is available throughout the year in sushi restaurants. There are various types of nasu nigiri, depending on the texture you want to experience. Tempura nasu has a light but crunchy outside layer. It is often served with grated ginger and its own dipping sauce. The most common nasu nigiri is a lightly grilled variation that melts in your mouth. It is firm enough to create a pleasurable contrast with the sushi rice.
