About Baba gannouch
Baba Ghanoush is a creamy and smoky Middle Eastern dip made primarily from roasted eggplant, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, and garlic. Originating from Levantine cuisine, it is a staple in Mediterranean diets, celebrated for its rich flavor and wholesome ingredients. Eggplant, the star of this dish, is low in calories and packed with fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins like B6 and K. Tahini, made from sesame seeds, adds protein and healthy fats, while olive oil contributes heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. Lemon juice provides a boost of vitamin C, and garlic introduces immune-supporting compounds. Baba Ghanoush is naturally vegan and gluten-free, making it a nutritious choice for many dietary needs. However, moderation is key as tahini and olive oil can be calorie-dense. Enjoy it as a dip, spread, or part of a balanced meal for a flavorful and beneficial addition to your diet.
