Smooth or Chunky Baba Ganoush
I use a fork to mash the eggplant dip.
You want the mixture to be somewhat smooth but still retaining some of the eggplant’s texture.
What to Serve With Baba Ganoush
Serve this dip for with toasted pita bread or crackers.

Celery or cucumber slices are a good gluten-free option.
Make a lot because you’ll want it eat it all and then some!
For best flavor, let it come to room temperature before serving.

Baba ganoush does not freeze well, and we don’t recommend it.
Poke the eggplants in several places with the tines of a fork.
Place on a baking sheet, cut side down, and roast until very tender, about 35-40 minutes.

Remove from oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes.
Alternate Grilling Instructions:Preheat grill.
Grill over high heat, turning as each side blackens.

If you want, swirl a little olive oil on the top.

Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley.
Serve with pita bread, crackers, toast, sliced baguette, celery, or cucumber slices.
