There used to be a middle eastern fast food joint near work, I have had many a bab ganoush and other delicacies there. Unfortunately, his landlord raised the rent by a thousand dollars every other month so he had to move.
I answered correctly. While I've never eaten it, I'm pretty sure that I have read about it. I should look at a recipe. It sounds like something that I'd like when eggplants come back into season, although I'd need to make it for lunch, as I doubt my husband would eat it.
It's similar to humus except that it'd made with roasted eggplant instead of garbanzo beans. It's good on pita or as an accompaniment to a sandwich, soup etc.
