Mezzah platter – a Middle Eastern twist on tapas
Mezzah, also spelled mezzeh, meze and mezze, roughly translates to "tapas" in Arabic. I like to create mezzah platters with a variety of ingredients and dishes that are influenced by Middle Eastern, Mediterranean and southern Spanish cuisines. You can keep these platters simple and light for appetizers, or make them more substantial for dinner. It's a fun way to eat because everyone can help themselves to their favorites, much like the salad-for-dinner platters I make.
