Baba Gha-Hummus

Disappointingly bland! Wish I had read other reviewers suggestions here first, as now I definitely realize I needed to add lots of fresh lemon juice, and extra salt - I also love the idea to drizzle with olive oil just before serving. I can imagine those tweaks would make this much better. Served as a dip with raw veggies.

Wow, I just made this and well on my way to eating it all! This is the best hummus recipe I have ever made. I like the addition of eggplant because it is a way to use some extra vegetables. I added a little lemon juice like others recommended, and because that is how I usually make hummus. My food processor seemed to need the little extra liquid to make it the right consistency. Highly recommended, will be on my regularly made list.

Better than hummous, better than baba ganoush! Added 1/2 lemon as per the other reviews and served it warm as the eggplant hadn't entirely cooled. Will make again & again!!!

This is one of my stand-bys. When I take it to a party, there is always at least one person who goes crazy over it. After reading the reviews, I might try it with lemon, but I like it just as it is. I also like to serve it warm or slightly warm if it's fresh, but it's good cold too.

Very flavorful, but a bit tricky to get the proportions of the ingredients just right. The recipe calls for a large eggplant, but that's pretty vague. I bought a really big eggplant, but then decided it was way too much. If you don't use enough eggplant, it just tastes like hummus. If you use too much, the dip tastes too bitter. The other flavorings were very strong, particularly the raw garlic. Also, the dip turns an unattractive brownish gray color if refrigerated.
