- Preheat oven to 375u0b0.
- Pierce eggplants several times with a fork; place on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake at 375u0b0 for 45 minutes or until tender. Cut eggplants in half; scoop out pulp. Drain eggplant pulp in a colander for 30 minutes. Place pulp in a food processor; pulse 5 times. Add juice and next 5 ingredients (through garlic), and process until almost smooth. Remove from processor.
