Japanese eggplants are truly on another level.
On the right is Kamo eggplant from Kyoto,
known for its large round shape, dense flesh, and rich sweetness. It holds its texture beautifully when grilled, fried, or simmered.
On the left is Mizunasu from Osaka,
famous for its exceptionally high water content, delicate texture, and mild sweetness.
It is so tender that it can even be enjoyed raw.
