- Black pepper : 1/4 teaspoon

Steps
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

- Remove the eggplants from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
- Cut the eggplants in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Discard the skin.

- Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
