[ID: A small bowl of rice topped with green peppers, eggplant, and tofu in a light brown sauce. End ID.]
Chinese-Japanese eggplant and shishito pepper stir-fry
This stir-fry of Japanese eggplant, tofu, and shishito peppers uses Chinese bean paste and Sichuan pepper to produce a combination of mild, fermented, sour, and umami flavors common in chuka ryori (literally, "Chinese food")—Chinese-inspired food adapted to a Japanese palate. As well as a balance of flavors, this dish features a play of textures: softened, seared peppers, crisp-on-the-outside tofu, and meltingly tender eggplant.
Recipe under the cut!
Patreon | Tip jar
INGREDIENTS:
For the dish:
2 Japanese eggplant, cut into 1/2" x 1/2" x 1" pieces
5 shishito peppers
1 14oz block extra firm tofu
1 yellow onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2" chunk (5g) ginger, julienned
Sesame seeds or sliced green onion, to garnish
For the sauce:
2 Tbsp doubanjiang (豆瓣醬)**
3 Tbsp mirin
1 Tbsp rice vinegar
1/4 cup vegetarian 'chicken' stock from concentrate, or vegetable stock plus 1 tsp soy sauce
Pinch ground Sichuan pepper
* Tofu from Asian grocery stores often comes pre-pressed. This type of tofu may be labeled "pressed"; you can also identify it by its denser texture and fewer pockets of liquid or air when compared to other extra firm tofu (the kind you'd tend to find at a Western grocery store). If you can't find any, you can press the tofu yourself.
** Doubanjiang is a paste of fermented soybeans which may or may not have chili peppers added. You may also see spicy doubanjiang, commonly eaten in the Sichuan province, called la doubanjiang (辣豆瓣醬). Use doubanjiang (also called "sweet bean paste") or la doubanjiang (also called "hot bean paste," "spicy bean paste," "spicy broad bean paste," etc.) according to your taste. If you don't have doubanjiang, you can substitute another fermented soybean product (such as doenjang or miso paste); for la doubanjiang, add Sichuan chili oil to taste.
INSTRUCTIONS:
For the sauce:
1. Whisk together all sauce ingredients in a small bowl until well combined.
For the dish:
1. Drain tofu. If your tofu is not pre-pressed, press it by wrapping it in a kitchen towel, placing a plate on top of it, and putting something moderately heavy (about the weight of two cans of soup) on top of the plate. Press for 30 minutes to an hour to remove excess water.
2. Cut tofu into 1 1/2” x 1” x 1” pieces. In a large bowl, coat tofu in 1/4 cup cornstarch and gently toss to coat.
3. Heat about 1/2” of neutral oil in a large pan on medium (the oil should come about halfway up the sides of the tofu pieces). Fry tofu, turning over once, until golden brown. The tofu will initially stick to the pan; you'll know it's ready to be turned when it releases. Once both sides have been fried and tofu is a uniform color and texture, set aside on a paper-towel-lined plate or a wire rack.
4. While the tofu is frying, heat 2 tsp neutral oil in another large pan on high and sear shishito peppers until black spots appear, turning once. Set aside.
5. In the same pan, fry onion, garlic, and ginger on high until fragrant, about one minute. Remove from heat.
6. Fry eggplant in about 1/2" of oil (I used the same pan and oil I had used for the tofu) until tender.
If you want to use less oil, you may also braise the eggplant: fry it briefly in the pan with your aromatics (onion, garlic, and ginger), then add 1/4 cup water, cover, and steam until eggplant is softened.
7. Move eggplant to the pan with your aromatics. Add sauce and simmer on medium for a minute until fragrant.
8. Add shishito peppers in with the eggplant and sauce mixture and simmer until the sauce has thickened.
9. Add tofu and fold into the sauce. Garnish with sesame seeds or green onion as desired and serve hot over rice.

Stir-fried shishito peppers in jade color (cooking)
Tumblr media
A simple dish made with shishito peppers that has some of the spiciness of chili peppers. Lightly fry the shishito peppers in a frying pan with olive oil, season with salt, and remove from the heat. Simple but delicious. The color is similar to jade and whets the appetite.

Summer Tomato Pie, Sweet Corn Ribs & Shishito Peppers, Gulf Tilefish a la Plancha & Blue Crab, Banana Pudding (Shared all). Helen. Birmingham, Alabama. 7.28.2023.
NOTE TO SELF: Everything was top-notch. The tilefish had a tangy, buttery flavor that melted in my mouth, and I could have eaten the corn ribs and peppers for a few days before growing tired of them. While the tomato pie and banana pudding were both solid, I wouldn't order them again because I want to try more things. Possibly a top 10 meal contender here.
Currently ranked 1st of 35 July meals.

I grew two successful shishito peppers! There are three more that are still growing. Looking forward to making them into some kind of sauce.

All the Lovers in the Night by Mieko Kawakami
The Book? What a book to read during these winter tide months of the year. Mieko Kawakami carefully writes out a realistic portrayal of a 34-year old Japanese woman who lives an unadorned life until something or someone changes her world. After reading that in the past she was assaulted by classmate Mizuno and made to grow up as a person who cannot express themselves and is mostly thoughtless,…
