SpreadsBased on Miso-Cup Recipes
- 1 eggplant (about 1 1/4 pound)
- 1 envelope Miso-Cup dissolved in 1/3 cup water
- 1 garlic clove
- 1/2 cup tahini
- Dash of cayenne and lemon juice
Pierce eggplant several times with a fork to prevent it from exploding. Bake eggplant until soft. Scoop out the center into a blender. Discard the skin. Add dissolved Miso-Cup and rest of ingredients and puree until smooth. Serve on crackers or chips.
Notes
I haven't made this yet. You can make a dressing out of it as well, by increasing the amount of water. Miso-Cup is a brand of instant miso soup that you can find at Whole Foods.
The bone-chilling scream split the warm summer night in two, the first
half being before the scream when it was fairly balmy and calm and
pleasant, the second half still balmy and quite pleasant for those who
hadn't heard the scream at all, but not calm or balmy or even very nice
for those who did hear the scream, discounting the little period of time
during the actual scream itself when your ears might have been hearing it
but your brain wasn't reacting yet to let you know.
