    I don’t have a recipe because I’ve just winged it. I’ve made a hot eggplant dip a couple of times and it’s so good. Basically for each large eggplant I roast a medium onion and whole head of garlic with the eggplant in the oven. Then blend them with the eggplants insides in my food processor with some salt, pepper, lemon juice, olive oil and Parmesan to taste. I serve it hot with little crispy bread toasts or fancy crackers.

    I just harvested my first eggplant and had planned on making this dish. I came in from harvesting and saw your video and nearly jumped up and down for joy! Watching your video as I make this for the first time is like being with a trusted friend in her kitchen. Can't wait to try both the baba ganoush and the tortillas. Thanks so much Jess!

    I don't have a baba ganoush recipe, but I have a little story for you:
    I started making the farmers cheese a while ago, and I also brought some to my parents. My mom got very excited about it, and asked me to send her your video. She's been making the cheese now aswell, and it never lasts long. My aunt also requested your video, but she hasn't been able to make the cheese. My grandma's birthday was on Wednesday, and I made it with herbs, and my aunt got very excited about finally being able to try it.
    Personally, I prefere stronger tasting cheese, but I now prefere home made cheese over even high quality store bought cheese.
    Here is to spreading the love for cheese

      My daughter #3 HATES that I don't use a recipe. She loves my cooking but gets so frustrated with me when she would call and ask me how to make something. Last Christmas I bought an old fashioned recipe box and filled it with her favorite childhood meals and desserts. She just got married earlier this month and I wanted her to feel confident in the kitchen.

    Here’s my only suggestion (because this is basically my hummus recipe with the eggplant replacing the chickpeas or navy beans) is when you’re roasting something during hot weather…. Put it in a portable roaster and plug it in outside. Your A/C will thank you. 😄. My husband is in the HVAC business and I’m always talking my about this hack on my channel. IF YOU CAN PLUG IT IN OUTSIDE….DO IT! 😊

  • @francestaylor9156

    I cook that way too lol. I don’t measure anything. Cooking is more of an art while baking is a science. I guess if you want more consistency, it’s good to measure. 🤷‍♀️.
    It’s fun to experiment and see what a bit more carrot does to the dish this time around. If it changes it a lot, then you just make note of that.
    Cooking is a lot more experience than skill though you can do a lot by learning up on skills. But you really just have to do it yourself with your own hands to really get to know how to cook.
    I’ve been cooking for 20 years now and I’m always learning something new. It’s such a great hobby that is super useful lol.

    In Romania we have a Eggplant-Dip too! It’s called “Vinete”.
    It consists of grilled, skinned and mashed Eggplant (to the point that the skins are almost burnt),finely chopped onions, homemade mayonnaise (I use a egg yolk, 1tsp of mustard and oil) and salt. Very simple and easy but my favorite. I just eat it on a good slice of bread😍

    I'm also on my day 5 of my Sourdough journey. Cannot wait to bake my first loaf. I'm watching The Sourdough journey here on UA-cam and he breaks it down perfectly. The science of baking is amazing. It's really not that complicated. People make it complicated and intimidating, it's actually not. If you have a friend with a starter they can give you or even purchase a starter, that would be easy. I have a started that i purchased as im fermenting my own. So if you want to start, dont wait. Experiment and have fun.

    Now all you need to do is plant some Sesame seeds for a semi homemade Tahini, semi homemade because I'd imagine you'd still have to buy the oil. 😆 Sesame plants are highly invasive though because the seeds are so small and its hard to get every last seed plus the wind would pick up one and you'd have Sesame plants everywhere but would be well worth it to make tahini and the leaves are so good especially if you put them in a korean pickled leaves/kimchi called kkaennip jjim. Very similar to perilla.
