A selection of mezze dishes will sing of sunny days, sitting outside in the shade, looking out over the sparkling sea. Even if you haven’t got a sea, or even if the sun isn’t shining, Mezze will bring these fabulous dishes to your own kitchen. Mezze is a style of dining in the Mediterranean and Middle East, consisting of delicious appetizers or small plates served with a melange of drinks. Mezze can’t be traced back to any one country in particular but the word is believed to originate from the Turkish word meaning snack or appetizer. Middle Eastern food inherently attracts people looking for healthier options—this means plenty of salad, as well as main dishes that are grilled rather than fried. This fantastic collection of fresh recipes include Dips & Salads, Cheese & Savory Pastries, Beans & Vegetables, Fish & Seafood, and Meat & Poultry. Recipe
