I grew up with this one as a child in Romania. EVERY one makes it during summer time out of their own egg plants grown in their garden. A very light dip delicious and easy to make. There are variations all over the Balkan Peninsula, and of course some might recognize it as Baba Ghanoush but it is very different because there's no Tahini or certain Middle-Eastern spices like ground cumin or mint, etc. A lovely dip for a summer afternoon or a great appetizer goes extremely well with chips or crusty Sourdough bread.
