I have not found period recipes for any of them. I have looked for hummus,
but not the other two.

I do have a 10th century recipe for a different eggplant dip, called
Badinjan Muhassa. You can find most of my (and Elizabeth's) worked out
recipes either in the online copy of the Miscellany at
http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/cariadoc/miscellany.htmlor (assuming the online
copy hasn't been updated to the seventh edition yet) in the collection of
additional recipes on my web page
(http://www.best.com/~ddfr/Medieval/Medieval.html).
