Eggplant and Onion Noodle Salad with Warm Soy-Rice Vinaigrette
Rice vinegar is mild and slightly sweet, so it's a good choice to pair with salty soy sauce in this Asian-style vinaigrette. Eggplant easily absorbs large quantities of oil. Salt it before cooking, and use a ridged grill pan to reduce the oil. Serve this salad warm or at room temperature with fish or chicken.
