I used to think that hummus and pita was the only known dip alternative to chips and salsa.

Persian Eggplant Dip: Kashke Bademjan
But then John’s aunt Nadia took us to an authentic Persian restaurant in San Diego where I was introduced to the wonder of Persian eggplant dip also known as kashke bademjan or borani. It’s my absolute new favorite dip on the planet.
Kashke bademjan is a Persian eggplant dip. In Farsi kashke refers to a product similar to yogurt and bademjan means eggplant. The dip is a delicious appetizer and is often served with pita bread or a baguette (source).
As always this dip is simple; even simpler – and healthier – than the traditional versions.
