Entertaining Meze Style

One of my favorite ways to eat and entertain is small bites. The Mediterranean culture has had this figured out for centuries. I've catered SO many parties with this style of food. The basic theory behind a Meze is Small Bites - Bold Flavors. The juxtaposition of sweet/sour, cool/hot, mild/spicy, and soft/crisp is the foundation for planning a well executed Meze experience.

Here are just a couple pictures of a Meze party Mood Wine we did recently...

I'm going to start an Entertaining Meze-Style series  - basically, I'll take one item at a time, write the recipe step-by-step and start a collection. This way you'll have a series of fun easy to prepare Meze dishes just in time for summer entertaining... STAY-TUNED!!!
