I was looking for something in my copy of Frugal Gourmet's "Our Immigrant Ancestors" and this recipe popped up. I LOVE Baba Ganoush with eggplant, so wanted to try this as well.
The recipe below is as written in his book (and in the link), but I used 2 cloves of garlic and 2 1/2 T. of tahini. Note: Salt is essential!
Delicious!
