What kind of dish is butaniku to nasu no miso itame⁇

This is a dish that I always make when summer comes. I used plenty of seasonal vegetables.

A stamina dish with pork that contains a lot of b vitamins that are effective in relieving fatigue.

Miso sauce triggers appetite.　

The miso that I usually use is a product sold by Fundokin. Click here for the official website 👉 https://www.fundokin.co.jp　

Eggplant is a bland vegetable, but it absorbs the umami of other ingredients like a sponge, making it very delicious. The eggplant, which fully absorbs the richness of the pork and the umami of the miso, is exquisite.

The secret to its deliciousness is gochujang and ginger.

Gochujang is a Korean seasoning made by fermenting glutinous rice with koji and adding spices such as chili pepper.

It is an essential ingredient in bibimbap, yangnyeom chicken and bibim guksu. It has both sweetness and spiciness. The spiciness is very mild compared to bean sauce.

Korean food is now very popular all over the world! ! Also check out bibimbap, Yangnyeom chicken and Bibim-guksu recipes.　👉　Korean rice bowl bibimbap　👉　Yangnyeom chicken（Korean Fried Chicken）　👉　Bibim-guksu（Korean spicy cold noodles）

I’m Naoko. After graduating from a registered dietitian training school, I am working as a registered dietitian at a hospital in Japan. I love to cook and eat delicious food. I make recipes with calorie counting. The reason why all the ingredients are written as “g” is to accurately calculate calories. I am especially good at cooking with pressure cookers and ovens. I would like to introduce the recipe to foreigners who are interested in Japanese food. So I started writing Japanese home cooking recipes on my blog in English. 大学卒業後、管理栄養士として病院で勤務しています。レシピはカロリー計算を出来るだけ正確に行いたいので“g”で表記しています。日本の家庭料理のレシピを英語で紹介しています。圧力鍋とオーブンを使う料理が得意です。日本食・和食に興味を持ってもらえたら嬉しいです。よろしくお願いします(*ˊᵕˋ)♡‧₊
