I'm not a big fan of eggplant, but this dip is delicious! It's smoky and flavorful, and the tahini and lemon juice give it a nice tang.

This dip is perfect for a party because it can be made ahead of time. I usually make it the day before and then let it chill in the refrigerator overnight.

This dip is a great way to use up leftover eggplant. I usually have some leftover after making eggplant parmesan.

This recipe is a great base for experimenting with different flavors. I've tried adding roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, and even chopped walnuts. It's always delicious.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my dip turned out too oily. I think I might have roasted the eggplant for too long.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices and garlic to give it more flavor.
