Baba Ghanoush

Submitted by: Paige 
We think that parties and pita bread were made for this eggplant - based dip. Baked, peeled and cooled eggplants are mated with lemon juice, yogurt, tahini, olive oil ...and a few other ingredients. A stint in the frig and it 's ready to dip into.

This Middle Eastern eggplant puree can be used as a dip with pita bread or served as a side dish. I like to add parsley to this dish. Just chop up the parsley with the other ingredients. It makes it look pretty and taste good! Enjoy!

A marinated eggplant in olive oil and seasonings that is a delicious antipasto dish. Traditionally we make this in September, to be served at Christmas time. Sometimes Nonna slipped a couple of finely sliced sun-dried tomatoes (with dried basil) into the mix for a variation.

Eggplant slices are twice baked for this delicious offering. First with lots of salt and pepper until they are tender and golden, and then with a sprinkling of herbs, just before they 're slipped under the broiler for a few moments to sizzle and get even crispier.

Great appetizers. Cooked eggplant is pureed with flour, egg and pepperoncini pepper and then dropped by teaspoonfuls into hot oil. Serve with toothpicks, salt and pepper.
