Eggplant Geotjeori (Fresh Eggplant Kimchi)

κ°€μ§€κ²‰μ ˆμ΄

Eggplant lightly cured in fish sauce and tossed with onion, green onion and chilies in a gochujang, ginger syrup and plum syrup dressing, then rested for two hours. The syrups boost savory flavor and sesame seeds add nuttiness, so less gochujang is needed.
