Turkish Appetizers & Meze

Turkish meze encourages diners to sample several small dishes, from creamy spreads to tangy vegetables and herb-filled bites. Haydari combines thick yogurt with herbs and garlic, ezme delivers finely chopped tomatoes and peppers with a spicy kick, and hummus or stuffed vine leaves add variety to the table. These appetizers pair well with grilled foods, flatbread, and shared meals.
