This recipe is amazing! I doubled it to take it as an appetizer for Thanksgiving day. I used black beauty eggplant freshly picked from my garden - I'm sure that just made it all the better. It was creamy and delicious. I can see why Giada chose cucumbers as the vessel - the chilled crisp cumcumbers were perfect for this dip. I will make this recipe again and again. I'm happy to have another recipe idea for all the eggplant that continues to grow in the garden. You can only make so much eggplant parmesan..... Thanks Giada!

It was too mild for my husband made as prepared. I added half a lime, a bit of cumin, extra salt and pepper, two smaller cloves of garlic, and a bit of toasted sesame oil. He said, "that is better." but he couldn't detect what extras I added! It would be better if I had a way to make smoky roasted eggplant. I used the broiler and cooked it in strips till light brown, then moved to the oven to dehydrate a bit more with some peppers I was roasting.
I tossed the cucumber in some rice vinegar and served with some oven roasted onion slices and ak-mak.

Easy! Inexpensive! Healthy! Delicious!! This recipe has every characteristic I look for when browsing this website. And when I say delicious, people kept asking me about it and scarfing it down. When so many people bring standard hummus to a party these days, this alternative is a welcome surprise. I've already made two batches this week. :

I wasn't so impressed with the flavors. Something seemed lacking, so I added more lemon juice and garlic. It was still lacking so hubby suggested tahini. That was the ticket! The texture was spot on.

I substituted the eggplant with roasted peppers because I'm not a big fan of eggplant. The dip was delicious!

I made this for a wine tasting party for my girlfriends and it was such a hot item! I served it with crudites and pita chips. Now I'm making it once a week just to have for myself for an after-work snack every day!
