    I'm so glad I found this! A friend made me some eggplant dip a couple of years ago, and it was great, but I remembered only 2 or 3 ingredients. Last night I bought some at the store, and it had mayo and sour cream in it...disappointed. Can't wait to make this, and maybe put a little tahini in it. - 7/2/09

    Tahini would be a nice addition, though you might want to reduce the lemon so that the flavors don't conflict.
