Olive oil

Baba ganoush
1 To make the baba ganoush - grill or barbecue the eggplants until the skin has blackened. Place in a sealed paper bag or a bowl covered with plastic wrap and let steam so the skin is easier to peel.
2 When cool, peel the skin and squeeze the juice out of each eggplant.
Place the eggplant in a food processor.
3 Add the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. Season to taste.
Taramasalata
1 To make the taramasalata - soak the breadcrumbs in the milk until soft.
2 Remove the skin from the roe and discard.
3 Place the soaked breadcrumbs into a food processor with the roe, garlic, onion, egg yolk, lemon juice, and olive oil.
4 Pulse until combined but not entirely smooth, for a bit of texture. Season to taste.
