I'm a huge fan of Baba Ghanoush. This looks great. Thanks for sharing.


I made this last weekend. I didn't have tahini, but I put a couple of large hand fulls of roasted sesame seeds instead. It took a while to get the sesame to smooth out in the blender, but it came up smooth as ever. It was cleaned up quick time. I will be whipping this up some more. Cheers!


This sound so good! I'm having guests over this Sunday for a Middle Eastern inspired dinner...this would be a perfect addition to that meal! I think I'll try it!


I'm back to say that this was a perfect addition to my dinner party!I made it exactly as written. I love the smokey flavor of the barbequed eggplant and the slight hint of sesame from the tahini! I will definitely be making this often! I added my photo.
