Baba Ghanoush is a smoky, creamy dip made from roasted or grilled eggplants. The charred eggplants are peeled and mashed, then mixed with tahini (sesame paste), lemon juice, garlic, and often a touch of olive oil. This Middle Eastern dish is seasoned with salt and sometimes cumin or other spices, and garnished with fresh herbs like parsley or mint. It’s commonly served with pita bread or fresh vegetables for dipping, making it a popular appetizer or snack.
