Also made this eggplant dip and loved it a lot too. This dip had some tahini (sesame paste) mixed in, which actually made the dip tangy and nutty. Another eggplant dip that's packed with flavor and tastes divine.

Cooked the eggplant at 350o for 40 mins -- worked like a charm. I'm not a great one for salt, but I did add a bit more than the 1/2 tsp called for. My 2 year old son is stuffing his face with it as I type, so it has his approval!! :)
