Wendell made an eggplant dish for dinner one night and there were about four leftover eggplants that he didn't use. Not wanting them to go to waste, I used them to make this tsukemono. I found a recipe at BellaOnline. It came out kinda sweeter than I expected but it was still good.
Slice the eggplant about 1/8 inch in thickness, sprinkle with Hawaiian salt and let stand for about an hour. I peeled the skin with a peeler in a striped pattern. Don't ask me why. I have no idea why I did that. I put the slices in my press, but you don't have to. I ended up squeezing the liquid out by hand anyway.
Combine 2 tsp. dry mustard with 2 tsp. water.
Dissolve 2 Tbsp. shoyu, 2 Tbsp. mirin, 2 Tbsp. sake and 2 Tbsp. sugar. Add to mustard/water.
After an hour or so, rinse the eggplant in some water (to remove the salt) and squeeze the liquid from the eggplant. Add the shoyu/mustard mixture. Allow to marinate in fridge for at least 8 hours before eating.
