Having just read a book with my daughter regarding a Baba Yaga, I had hoped this post would get into that aspect.
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/baba
A kind of sponge cake soaked in rum-flavoured syrup.
(esp. among people of East European ancestry) A grandmother.
An old woman, especially a traditional old woman from an eastern European culture.
father: Chinese, Arabic, Western Armenian, Hindi, Urdu, Bengali, Greek, Marathi, Nepali, Persian, Swahili, Turkish, Yoruba, Shona, Zulu
grandmother: many Slavic languages (such as Bulgarian, Russian and Polish), Yiddish, Japanese
And also perhaps baba ganoush
And the link to a recipe is ... where?
