Melitzanosalata

Greek for "eggplant salad", melitzanosalata really refers to a dip. To make it, roast eggplants are blended or mashed with olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice. The Middle Eastern delicacy baba ghanoush, which is comparable to this, is also similar. In addition to fiber, eggplants are a wonderful source of antioxidants, which prevent the harm done by free radicals. Free radicals are produced in the body as well as in the environment. They have been connected to cell damage that results in aging, cancer, and chronic illness.

Nasunin is a potent antioxidant found in eggplants. According to research, nasunin can lower free radicals and safeguard the health of the brain. The dip also has garlic and lemon juice flavoring. Both of these are often used in Greek cuisine and have their own health advantages. For instance, lemons are rich in heart-healthy vitamin C and may help avoid kidney stones, while garlic can strengthen the immune system and help prevent heart disease. Typically, melitzanosalata is offered as an appetizer with bread and veggies for dipping. Additionally, you may spread it on sandwiches.
