You know it's good when the person does a little shimmy dance after they try it!
I thought I was the only one who did the food dance
@@debbiebolman2705I do too🤣
LOL! I was just going to say that. It's the happy dance that tells you it's really good.
Another fellow food dancer! 😂 and I passed it on to my kids they do it too, haha.
A southern woman making baba ganoush and authentic corn tortillas; what a lovely fusion of cultures and recipes
I really want a shirt that says "I eat garlic like vampires are a real threat." Lol. The baba ganoush looks great. I'm going to have to try it.
You mean there not,😂,
Your next shirt design should be “ I eat garlic like vampires are a real threat”. lol I’d totally get one because I do too haha😂 I love that phrase
Yes, Jess!
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.
Is adding parmesan your own twist to the baba ganoush, or is it from a different region that adds parmesan to it? I have never heard of or tasted it with parmesan and was curious.
@@mashal8915 I don’t think it’s technically baba ganoush at all. I just had some eggplants and wanted a hot dip so I made something up. I’ve never actually had baba ganoush either. If I get some good eggplants in the green this year I’ll try it.
The little happy dance was adorable!!!!
Ahhh HOMEMADE TORTILLAS!! When I was around 18-19 years old…I went to Mexico with my then bf. I didn’t know how to cook hardly at all. I’d never had a tortilla. This was late 80’s sooo…don’t judge me lol. I (as a woman) was expected to know how to cook so I stuck really close to his mom. I helped cook and grind the corn (holy cow that stuff is a beast to grind! I needed more muscle!) then mix into a dough (masa). I was constantly teased because I’d always make them lopsided lol. We had a cooking stone on the fire that we’d lay them on to cook. Homemade tortillas are so much better than store bought!! Even when there lopsided! Thanks for the memories 💜 Tamara
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!
Measuring: I heard an idea for those who don’t measure: put your bowl on a scale & just check the quantity after you’ve added it
I just learned that Chinese egg plant has less seeds and is less bitter. I haven't tried them yet but looking forward to growing and tasting the difference
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
🤤😁 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! 😊
Great tip! I do this with my roaster and my dehydrator, as well.
Oh goodness! Never even thought of putting Baba Ghanoush together with a fresh tortilla! Here in Tucson Arizona you would think I would have thought of that ages ago!
The joy on your face makes me excited to learn this recipe 😁
I’m SO glad you FINALLY got to eat your wonderful dip!!! Thanks for sharing the recipe
I like to put eggplant on the leftover coals after I grill out and then make baba ganoush. The coals add a nice smoky flavor.
Yes! This! On the off season, if you actually broil the eggplants, large ones for an hour, turning a quarter turn every 15 minutes, medium ones for 40mins, you can also get that smoky flavor.
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.

If you make this then also make hummus...then hear me out... mix them together.. the flavor and texture is amazing.
JESS, there's a company supporting small farmers of heirloom corn that's been grown for centuries. It's named Masienda. They sell masa harina. Grains and Grit you tube channel just did a video all about them.
I use them in my channel too! It’s THE BEST masa harina I’ve ever had! That’s coming from a Mexican woman who was raised in homemade tortillas household! Even my Mexico born mom agrees it’s the best she’s ever used!
Grandma always taught us to measure from the heart!
Me too no recipes
A friend of mine is from Trinidad and one day when I was over she was making Choka which is their eggplant dip recipe. And while it’s very similar, her “recipe” also included roasting tomatoes and also a whole roasted head of garlic and then just processing the whole mess with the rest of the ingredients you mentioned (salt, olive oil, pepper). I had never had Baba ganoush (sp?) but it was sooo good and I have approximated a version at home for myself. When you don’t measure anything, or the “recipe” you’re following is not measured, each time you make it will be slightly different but likely still good.
But maybe try roasting some garlic and tomatoes into a batch and see what you think of it! Thanks for the reminder to me for when my eggplants starts producing! Bless you! Carrie (ps lovely meeting you at MurrayFest!)
Good morning Jess. Thanks for the brightness you bring into my life.
Thank you so much for this recipe!! I have 12 eggplants out in my garden and this recipe will make very good use of them ❤
Recipe written down, for both the baba ganoush and the tortillas, tortilla press ordered, looking forward very much to trying this!!! I am confident, this will match my taste!!
Thank you Jess. If you add some sautéed butter with the garlic add pistachio and mix in some yogurt it is called mutebbel. Refikas kitchen has many eggplant recipes. I urge you to check her out. Take care and bless you and your family Jess.
I am about to finish my 1st time eating and making Baba Ghanoush along with the tortillas. You make the things you cook look so easy for me to try new things. I am a southern Tennessee cook that never measures anything as well just like my mother and grandmother's did. Thank you so much for simplifying what you do and introducing me to delicious new to me recipes 😊!
Now I want to grow eggplant!!
My mouth just literally watered!! I really like baba ganoush and corn tortillas and never thought of putting them together. Now, I've got to see if I can order some masa harina to be delivered in Portugal..
Oh my gosh, I love Baba Ganoush. Thank you for the recipe. My eggplant are ready to be picked.
We were just having baba ganoush at a restaurant the day before you released this and I was talking to my parents and brother about how you make it yourself at home too. Such great timing!
Darn it! After not liking eggplant during my childhood I'm going to have to add eggplant to my garden next year so I can try this!
I know you can’t, but I go straight for pita or naan bread!!! I used to make this for my Mother-in-Law!!! She loved it!!! We would eat it all between the two of us!!
Watched this because of the movie "Party Girl" and now I have to try the recipe...never had it! "Excuse me, can I get a falafel with hot sauce, a side order of baba ganoush, and a seltzer please". Blessings from Horseheads, NY
YOU, are my people! 😄
😅❤
I absolutely love baba ganoush! I can’t wait to try this recipe! Thanks, Jess!
Hi from trinidad 🇹🇹 that is called biagan choka in the Caribbean
all the recipes come from My Mom and our dairy farm unless stated otherwise
In the sumer we would have family and friends come over for a Bar-be-cue which included Barbecue meat from animals we raised and buchered ourselves. The old fashion Ice Cream cranks (at least 2) with old toweld for one of the kids to set on and several people to turn the crank. After my Mom died I took her Brown recipe box and any other special recipes and saved them to my Recipe files. I also took her favorite recipes from all her Farm Journal cookbooks and put in my file. Along with a Family Recipe book I made years ago of each of my brothers(3) and sisters (2) and mine and made it for each of my brothers & sisters and their children and my Mom for Christmas presents. I am so glad I did because both my parents are dead and my oldest sister and 2 of my brothers. Now my 3 teen grandchildren will have those recipes.

Growing egg plant so I can try this! You are as cute as can be when you share recipes you’re passionate about.
All us neurodivergent ladies clocked your little food dance and I’m here for it. I do the same thing lol
@@LelaWenzel me too, and my daughter. My daughter’s husband lovingly teases her about it but when we are together she says, “see my mom does it too!” 😆
You look healthy, happy & gorgeous! I love eggplant, thank you for sharing this recipe 🥰
I never even saw this posted and I made baba ganoush two days ago. Had a hankering 😆
I love learning to cook with you Jess
Planted eggplant for the first time ever this year, but it's looking puny...I will have to buy some locally and try this asap! Looks fresh and delicious! Blessings, Marie
I’m so glad the tortilla press turned out to be a good one! I was so worried it would be a really crappy quality one but it looks good!
Now I need to find me some eggplants and try this🤤
@@soilandsazon are you the viewer who gifted this to her? If so, how incredibly sweet of you!
@@carriepester5725 yes😊
So excited to see a gluten and dairy free option for me. Thank you ❤
My favorite recipe of all time was one you made several years ago!! It was sliced fresh tomatoes, sliced eggplant and sliced onions with garlic and olive oil and it was baked. I made it at home and it was AMAZING!! This recipe looks great too and I have to try it!!!
My mouth is watering!
I will make this for sure.
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 RUclips 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.
omg that shimmy is the exact dance I think we all do :D
I’m really a Roots and Refuge kind of gal, but I NEED to see how you make this!
I will definitely be making this as soon as I’m able to drive to the store. I have 4-5 weeks in a sling before I’m allowed to drive. I can’t wait to try this recipe. That looks amazing. I should probably order a tortilla press while I’m healing. Have a great rest of the weekend 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️😋😋😋
Thank you for another great recipe! I will be trying this one, too.
Going to have to try this. Thank you for this recipe. ❤️
Yay! I’ve been so curious about how you make yours. I make this all the time. In a similar way, with a few differences. For a smokier flavor I cook them for the same amount of time, but under the broiler, turning them a quarter turn every 10-15 minutes, large eggplants I’ll broil for an hour, no joke. It also makes a softer flesh that breaks up easier, because my Greek grandmother raised in Turkey said, never touch your eggplant to metal, no food processor, or metal bowl. She said eggplant picks up the metallic flavor. I’m not sure if that’s true, but I never wanted to find out. Vigorously mixing it, like you did, with a wooden spoon, after broiling it, makes it less chunky but still maintains a rustic texture. It really is the best thing ever.
The best baba I’ve ever eaten at a restaurant was at a Turkish place in Queens NY. It was so good because it was smoky. I once went there as they were pulling the eggplants out of the ovens. They were charred! That was their secret. It was the broiling that had mine tasting just like theirs.
Mmmmmmmmm… it looks so good with that paprika on top. 🤤
I have been excited for this recipe since last summer
Thanks for sharing… I have never been fond of eggplant, except in eggplant par,Sean, but have an abundance right now . This sounds so good, I’m making it this afternoon! 😂❤
Oh, I’m SO going to harvest my eggplants and make this!!!!
Ok thank you. I’m going to make this. ♥️
Thank you for this recipe. I can't wait to try it.
Thanks Jess! I have eggplant almost ready in my garden and will definitely have to try this! Bless you!
YAY!!! Great demo and looks delicious!!!❤
I can't wait to try this!
Looks great. Going to try
I bet it would be good if you use roasted garlic too.
Bonus!!! 😮 Thanks for the tortilla recipe too!! 🤩
I also like baba ganoush. However, I'll say the one thing I like about it most is...that it does NOT taste like eggplant. Just thought I'd throw that tidbit in for any other eggplant-haters. Give it a try. You may be surprised. And Jess, this recipe looks perfect, even without strict measurements (I never measure, either.)
I love love LOVE Baba Ganoush. My mouth is watering and will be making some like NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just have to get some eggplants. Thanks!! Hummus is good, but nothing is like Baba Ganoush.
I just picked a handful of eggplants this morning and now I know what I am going to do with them. I have made baba ganoush in the past but this reminded me it would make a good appetizer for my 4th of July party. Thanks Jess! Oh and I like to top mine with Zatar and a paprika!
My favourite for years. Thanks for sharing your recipe will try it. Would be great to show us a pita recipe as well.
Thank you! I was hoping you would do this!
Yay! Can't wait for my eggplants now! Thanks for sharing
I am growing lots of eggplant this year! I will definitely try your recipe! I made eggplant puttanesca last year and I loved it as well!! Happy Gardening!! 😊
Jess I’m so glad you started this channel. I’m always waiting anxiously for the next post.
I wil definitely try both the ghanoush as well as the corn tortilla. Much thanks!
Another Jess recipe I'm going to have to try!
YAY! I've looking forward to this recipe since you mentioned it last year. My eggplants aren't quite ready to harvest but getting close and I already have all the other ingredients ready to go. I cannot wait to try this! Always love a recipe of something different to do with garden vegetables other than the usual way to cook them. Thank you so much!!!!!
I use roasted or confit garlic in mine and it’s great!
Can’t wait to try this! Our eggplants are producing so much this year and I’m looking for things to do with them.
Been looking forward to this one…now just waiting on my eggplants! Thanks Jess
Thank you for sharing! God bless
I planted a few eggplants and had no idea what to do with them! I can’t wait to try this.
I’ve been so looking forward to this recipe!
My eggplants are just beginning to grow. I can't wait to make this and the chips. Thanks for showing us how to make this lovely dip.
Can’t wait to try
Love the happy shoulder wiggle ❤
I’ve been waiting for this!!!!! Thank you so very much…🤍
interesting, thanks for sharing👌👌👍👍👍👍
Nice 😊thanks for the eggplant recipe
Oh one of my favorites tooo! Yummy!
The recipe looks delicious. You cook by taste and that is the best way to cook.
I had no tahini, so I made it eith peanut butter ooh it was good ❤
@@helenreid7712 way to improvise!
I picked a whole basket of eggplant today. We made eggplant keto pizzas😂, but I remembered you talking about this. I intended to search your catalog for a video. Thank you for posting this today!!!!
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😍
This sounds yummy and my eggplant is just about ready to harvest! I couldn’t find the recipe but I think I can remember it. Can’t wait to try it! Thanks Jess!
I have to make this. I LOVE tahini
Ohhh....I've been waiting for this one!!!
I love Baba Ganoush!.. Thank you for sharing.. I love eggplant fried, as a noodle substitute in lasagna and really any dish.. My husband does not but he loves Baba Ganoush.. Will try this .. thank you.. Tahini is very easy to make if you can't find it in your store. It's basically toasted sesame seeds with olive oil and salt. Your videos always brighten my day!
I have a beautiful little baseball sized eggplant that I can't wait to try!!
If my egg plants produce, I will certainly try it. I love tahini and hummus so I am certain I will like it. Besides, the little dance was incentive enough...Great video. Will check out Chrissie's too - she has done very well.
Okay so its like hummus. I plan to make this. Our eggplants are still a little small yet
