Origin Toshu Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chofu City, Tokyo / Representative: Masayuki Goto) of the Aeon Group will begin selling the "Eggplant Spicy Miso Stir-fry Bento ~Featuring 3 Types of Jang!~" at its bento and deli specialty stores "Kitchen Origin" and "Origin Bento" from Saturday, May 2nd.
The key to the flavor is our proud special spicy miso sauce.
The base miso is a blend of bean miso and rice miso. Sweetness from tenmenjan (sweet bean paste), spiciness from tobanjan (chili bean paste), and a subtle bitterness from touchijan (fermented black beans) are added, with oyster sauce as a secret ingredient to bring out a rich depth of flavor. It's an outstanding dish that pairs perfectly with rice.
By combining our homemade sauce with Kumamoto-grown eggplant, the rich sauce enhances the freshness of the eggplant.
