Gary Ganoush, as in No sesame is good ganoush with Gary Ganoush My wife has eliminated sesame from her diet (due to allergies), so we came up with this excellent sesame-free baba ganoush recipe We use pine nuts instead of sesame We use kala jeera (an Indian spice, a k a Bunium persicum or black cumin) to enhance the nuttiness of the pine nuts We add a little more flavor with Herbamare (an herbed salt mix from France) Gary Ganoush has a very delicate flavor, so I would only recommend it if your eggplant is absolutely fresh Make it a day in advance, and put it in the fridge The nutty flavor really comes out on day two Serve with crackers or pita bread , as in No sesame is good ganoush with Gary Ganoush My wife has eliminated sesame from her diet (due to allergies), so we came up with this excellent sesame-free baba ganoush recipe We use pine nuts instead of sesame We use kala jeera (an Indian spice, a k a Bunium persicum or black cumin) to enhance the nuttiness of the pine nuts We add a little more flavor with Herbamare (an herbed salt mix from France) Gary Ganoush has a very delicate flavor, so I would only recommend it if your eggplant is absolutely fresh Make it a day in advance, and put it in the fridge The nutty flavor really comes out on day two Serve with crackers or pita bread
