This Eggplant Caponata is the perfect dish to serve during your next dinner party, game day, or family gathering. The roasted eggplant gives this dip a nice smokey flavor, and the hot pepper flakes along with the vinegar and sugar give it a nice sweet, tangy, and spicy flavor. But don't worry, the spice is not overpowering at all.
