A beloved Persian appetizer featuring roasted eggplant blended with kashk (fermented whey), topped with caramelized onions, garlic, and aromatic mint. Served with warm bread, this creamy dip is the perfect start to your Persian dining experience.
Kashk-e-Bademjan is one of the most popular appetizers in Persian cuisine, and at Nik Persian Restaurant, we prepare it using traditional methods that bring out the best flavors. We start by slowly roasting eggplants until they develop a deep, smoky flavor. The flesh is then mashed and combined with kashk, a unique Persian ingredient made from fermented whey that adds a tangy, creamy dimension.
Golden caramelized onions and sauteed garlic are folded into the mixture, while crispy fried onions and dried mint are sprinkled on top for garnish. The result is a rich, complex dip with layers of smoky, tangy, and savory flavors. Served with fresh Persian bread, Kashk-e-Bademjan is an essential start to any Persian feast and a vegetarian favorite.
