Mediterranean Mezze at the Pantry

Mezze (small plates) pop up all across the Mediterranean, and they extend beyond the standard hummus and tabbouleh served at most restaurants. In this class, Nadia Tommalieh will show you how to transform local ingredients into mezze that can be served as appetizers or as the centerpiece of a Mediterranean-style feast. You’ll learn how to layer flavors in musakhan (chicken with caramelized onions and sumac), accompanied by salatet betinjan (roasted eggplant, tomatoes, and pomegranate molasses), labneh bil joz (strained yogurt with walnuts and parsley), and soak up any last sauce with homemade koubez saj (flatbread).

This is a live, hands-on cooking class held in your kitchen via Zoom. Class is meant to be as interactive as it would be at our table, with the instructor teaching you how to prepare each recipe. Each class ticket is for one kitchen, and we welcome group cooking on the same screen. All recipes are designed for four servings.

Two days before class we will email everyone the detailed recipe packet and a Zoom link. All classes are listed in Pacific Standard Time.
