If you’re looking for a flavorful variation on the party platter, assemble a meze to explore a taste of the Mediterranean and Middle East. Also spelled mezze meaning “taste,” “share,” and/or “snack”, this style of dining includes a selection of small plates and dishes, similar to Spanish tapas. Dips and spreads, such as labneh, hummus and baba ghanoush, are commonplace, along with veggies, olives, pickles and other finger food. Also, don’t forget the pita bread. You’ll need it to scoop up all that deliciousness. Here are some recipes to get you started on a perfect meze spread.
