About Kaba ghanoush
Baba Ghanoush is a creamy and savory Middle Eastern dip made primarily from roasted eggplant, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic. Originating from Levantine cuisine, this dish is enjoyed worldwide for its smoky flavor and smooth texture. Eggplant, the star ingredient, is rich in fiber, antioxidants, and low in calories, making baba ghanoush a nutritious choice. Tahini adds healthy fats and protein, while olive oil contributes heart-friendly monounsaturated fats. Lemon juice provides a boost of vitamin C, and garlic offers anti-inflammatory and immune-supporting benefits. While baba ghanoush is generally a healthy option, its calorie content can increase if extra olive oil or tahini is added excessively. Often served with pita bread or raw veggies, it makes a versatile and health-conscious addition to meals and snacks.
