I roasted a bunch of eggplants.

Generally, I scoop out the inside and trash the peels, and put it into the food processor with fried onions as a dip.

I'm wondering if I can put the whole thing in the food processor, with the peels? I know that there are sometimes peels in store bought eggplant dips, what do you think??

TIA!!

Assuming you scrubbed the peels first, why not? I make eggplant salad with the peel all the time. The flecks look pretty Smile

Thank you, great! This sounds easier and less wasteful than throwing them out.

What would I do without my imamother friends?

I won't put skin in. 1) the whole point of aubergine dip is smokey flavour from (almost) charred skin. I don't want my dip to taste like charcoal. 2) it's not that difficult just to scoop the flesh.
