Mediterranean Mezze

Mediterranean mezze is as much about good food as it is about bringing close friends and family together. Like tapas, mezze is a collection of small plates meant for sharing.

A mezze is all about sharing good food and making memories over a meal. Classic dishes like tabbouleh, hummus, Turkish grape leaves, and Lebanese baklawa are always on the table, but I also love throwing in Moroccan zaalouk—a smoky eggplant dish that adds something extra to the spread.

On this page, you’ll find my favorite Arabic mezze recipes and Mediterranean dips. Divide the cooking with friends and family around a long table, and enjoy a great night filled with love and memories.
