Baba ganoush is delicious on crackers, vegetable slices, or pita bread. It freezes really well, so make extra!

Ingredients
  1. 4 medium eggplant (about two cups roasted--see below)
  2. 6 cloves garlic, roasted or raw (see below)
  3. 1 cup tahini
  4. 1/4 cup lemon or lime juice, fresh or bottled
  5. 1 tsp salt or to taste
  6. Black pepper to taste
  7. Spicy pepper powder to taste (optional)
Instructions
  1. Pierce the eggplant and roast whole 30-40 minutes on moderate heat in grill or oven (just keep an eye on it).
  2. Cool and peel.
  3. At the same time, place 6 cloves garlic (or a whole head) in foil with a little olive oil to roast along with the eggplant.
  4. Place all the ingredients in a food processor and puree until smooth. Should be a dippable, spreadable consistency. If not, add more tahini.
  5. Serve or freeze.
  6. If freezing, leave 1/2 head space in jars for expansion. Thaw to use.
