Baba Ganoush

  Posted on   by   2 comments

Yesterday, I catered a large party. It was all vegetarian. I served falafel, tabouli, lentil salad, hummus and Baba Ganoush.

Baba ghanoush is a Levantine dish of eggplant (aubergine) mashed and mixed with virgin olive oil and various seasonings. The eggplant is charred over an open flame and then baked, so that the pulp is soft and has a smoky taste. It is eaten as a dip with pita bread, and is sometimes added to other dishes.
