I created this eggplant dip for a class I’m teaching at Rancho La Puerta Spa in Mexico to take advantage of all the gorgeous vegetables in their organic gardens. It’s a spin on one of my favorites from Greece—melinzansalata.
Summer vegetable confits, like this one from sweet pepper and garlic, are exceptionally versatile in the kitchen; the ultimate summer convenience food.
