How to Make Melitzanosalata - EASY Greek Eggplant Dip

Full Recipe: happymediterranean.com/how-to...
Melitzanosalata, "eggplant salad" in English, is a traditional Greek dish that is more of a dip or spread than a salad as we’re used to. It’s made from roasted or grilled eggplants, which lend a smoky quality to the dish. If you’ve ever tried baba ganoush, this may be ringing bells, and they are quite similar but there are some key differences - like melitzanosalata has a more tangy, stronger flavor.
We’ll show you how to make this flavor sensation and how you can use it. Even though it’s typically considered a dip or spread, you can use it in so many ways, to complement and enhance many types of dishes.
