lela’s “extended family cookbook” project

baba ghanoush/baba gasmoosh

March 30, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Lisa is one of my best friends, I’ve known her since Kindergarten. We’ve know each other since we were 4 years old, almost 29 years, in 2009 we’ll have to have a 30th anniversary party with lots of baba ghanoush. Somewhere along the line we developed nicknames for each other beyond the generic “be fri” and “st ends”. (She always got to be “be fri”, and I got “st ends”…) and adopted the monikers “Babaganoosh” and “Babagasmoosh”. (Again, more often than not, she was “ganoosh” and I was “gasmoosh”…hmmm.) 

Now Lisa lives in La Jolla, CA with her husband Shawn and their adorable kid Ben. Hopefully we’ll be seeing them again in June when we get out to California, it’s been since our wedding – almost two years.  Lisa is a busy mom so I’ll forgive her not sending a recipe, and will just pry one out of her when I see her. Maybe the two of us, nowadays commonly and communally known as just “bubs”, will create an out-of-this-world babaganoosh recipe to share with the extended family!

You decide , which eggplant is ghanoush and which is gasmoosh?
