I made this and it came out nice and smooth, but not much for taste. It had a bitter after taste that was really a turn off. I didn't have time to play around with trying to fix it before guest arrived. Did not go over well at all - won't make it again.




Just so-so

This was bland like the others said; an overall unimpressive dip. I am really hoping that it tastes better after chilling for a few hours. Even so, I'll be looking for a better version of this.




Good stuff!

I've never had babaganoush before and was anxious to try it. I made it for lunch one day when we had some friends over and served it warm. It was very good and the kids liked that they could scoop it up with the pita.




Velvety Babaganoush.

I love Mediterrenean food and Ellie's babaganoush is absolutely tasty, refined, and healthy. I strongly recommend it.




Good

We liked this, but did not love it, like we usually do with traditional babaganoush. We love eggplant, but this is very eggplant-y (even chilled). I added more tahini and a little olive oil and that helped, but not enough. Finally I mixed it 50/50 with hummus, and then it was great!




Yum

I initially tasted this while the eggplant was still warm, and it was very blah. I wasn't sure that I would want to eat it at all. Once the dip was chilled overnight, though, the eggplant absorbed all the flavors of the dip and I really enjoyed it. Will make again.

This is so good and you can just call it "dip", if faced with people who claim not to like eggplant. It may well convert them.
