[@donnavondenbosch8413]

I happened to your channel and made this for my family today. It was easy. When they saw I bought an eggplant, they were saying nooo, I can`t wait for tonight when they think it is from hummus and I spring it on them! Great taste and easy !

[@cyprusangels]

I made this it was so good thank you 🙏

[@C00ltronix]

Best tool to scrape out eggplants is a silicone spatula. And if you don't really like the taste of fresh garlic, wrap the garlic in alu foil and bake them together with the eggplants. No need to clean the cloves, they get soft and you can squeeze them out. Roasted garlic has a mild nutty taste, just lovely.

[@Seabiscuit7]

Great tips. Thank you.

[@Feelgoodfoodie]

Love those tips!

[@SA-de4lc]

@@Feelgoodfoodie So good ! but it's Moutabal and not Baba Ganoush. Baba Ganoush doesn't have tahini at all !

Baba Ganoush is a delight.

[@ziz3ziz]

I am trying this right now! Just put the eggplant in the oven, I've made this for years but stopped because I was always disappointed by the appearance. The color would be too dark and unappealing. I have high hopes for your recipe! Your vegan grapeleaves recipe is now the only one I use! Thank goodness I found YOU!!!! Keep up the incredible work you are making me very happy!! xoxo

[@coolgirlscook9860]

I love your recipes so much! You are very creative. It has inspired to make my own recipes too.

[@Feelgoodfoodie]

Aww, thank you so much! I'm so glad to be of inspiration.

[@anap.117]

I love this!!!! I usually buy a platter that comes with Falafel, baba ganoush, Hummus, Tabouli, Kibbeh, Stuffed grape leaves, and rice pilaf from the Lebanese restaurant near my house but my wallet has been going through some distress lately 😅 so I'm definitely gonna give it a go and make it from scratch at home. I'm originally from the Caribbean but I loveeeeeeeee Lebanese food so much seriously! Thank you so much!!!!

Love it.. Love from India ❤

[@Feelgoodfoodie]

Thank you!!!

[@randmayfield5695]

Just a fun variation that I like doing is roast a bulb of garlic coated with a little olive oil and wrapped in foil the use that instead of the raw. Raw garlic is great but roasted tends to be a little milder. Either way, you be you.

I bought my sesame seeds dated Sept. 2022 and didn’t open from the plastic can I still used it to make Tahini ? New viewer . Cheers !

[@aurelianfreeman1800]

is it possible to fill it in jars and keep it longer...maybe a few months ?? that would be useful during off-season when the eggplants are extremely expensive.

[@hotmama6927]

How can I use an air fryer

Can we cook/roast the eggplant in the air fryer?

[@arzoofaiez297]

Does it taste good if I use olive oil instead of tahini ?

[@appolop8273]

The white or purple eggplants are sweeter and less bitter than the dark one's.

[@user-jb4en9ts6f]

Is this 400 degrees Fahrenheit or 400 degrees Celsius for the oven?

Great video and not only is the babaghanosh vegan but also barely any carbs - so no harmful insulin spike❤️👍

[@sysamanthahope9033]

I saw another food channel add cumin, can we also add paprika?

[@Feelgoodfoodie]

I'm sure you could!

[@aurora_skonyt]

For me, I personally don't like blending the mixture into a completely, fine paste that which kinda looks like chocolate ice cream. I like very small chunks and eggplant to give that texture and that BITE.

[@peterdonaghue8113]

Eggplants are pretty

[@Feelgoodfoodie]

They really are!

[@QueenQt67]

All good But I pierce the eggplant with a fork all around and then grill it on my stove all around then I put two peeled garlic with salt and crush them into a paste then I add tahini ( sesame seed paste ) and usually I squeeze lemon 🍋 but I find white vinegar gives it a even better taste and mix it all together then decorate with olive oil and chopped parsley around it 👍🏼🇱🇧❤️🇦🇺

[@jools1006]

I do this too - firing the eggplant skin over the flame before baking. Gives it an extra smokiness that’s amazing.

[@sysamanthahope9033]

Can i use dried parsley instead of fresh

[@Feelgoodfoodie]

For sure!

[@misisk1121]

How long can you keep it in the fridge?

[@Feelgoodfoodie]

Store any leftovers in an airtight container for about 7 days in the fridge.

For best results, I'd follow the recipe as is! However, instead of tahini paste, you could use olive oil!

Both - tahini and olive oil have to be used for proper Baba Ghanoush. Also, kumin is needed.

You can find the tahini at Middle Eastern markets, natural-foods stores. Most large supermarkets now carry it as well, often located with other Middle Eastern ingredients or in the peanut butter section.

[@ghaddadus]

All middle eastern grocery stores have it. Superking is one of them. I am not sure where exactly in California you are, but we have them here in southern California

[@SA-de4lc]

Mrs. J, you can make your own tahini. please use sesame seeds,any vegetable oil instead of olive oil & please don't use salt. Check Refika's kitchen for making tahini. Thanks
