About Aubergine spread

Aubergine spread, often referred to as Baba Ganoush, is a creamy and flavorful dip rooted in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine. Made primarily from roasted eggplant, it gets its signature smoky taste from charring the skin before blending the flesh with tahini, garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil. Rich in fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants, eggplant contributes to heart and digestive health. Olive oil provides healthy fats that support cholesterol management, while tahini adds protein and important minerals like calcium and magnesium. Low in calories and naturally free of gluten, this plant-based spread is a nutritious option for many diets. However, its fat content, while consisting mostly of healthy fats, can add up if consumed in large quantities. Enjoy as a dip with vegetables or flatbread, or use it as a creamy topping for salads and sandwiches, offering a wholesome twist to your meals.
