Baba Ghannouj
Grilled eggplant with tahini, lemon and garlic, bringing a delicate smoky depth to every bite.
The preparation
Flavor in the details.
Grilling softens the eggplant and brings out its smoky character. The tender flesh is combined with tahini, lemon and garlic, balancing the vegetable's mellow flavor with sesame richness and citrus.
The story
Its place at the table.
Eggplant dips are a familiar part of Middle Eastern mezze. Baba ghannouj brings the flavor of the grill to the cold appetizer table, alongside dips, vegetables and bread.
At your table
Let the eggplant lead.
Smoky eggplant and tahini make baba ghannouj a different starting point from chickpea-based hummus. Try the dip with bread first, then compare it with lemon-and-garlic chicken taouk. The smoke, citrus and garlic create a savory combination without every plate needing the same texture. Explore the pairing
