LEBANESE PLATTER-MEZZE

Lebanese cuisine includes an abundance of starches, whole grain, fruits, vegetables, fresh fish and seafood; animal fats are consumed sparingly. Poultry is eaten more often than red meat. When red meat is eaten it is usually lamb orgoat meat.It also includes copious amounts of garlic and olive oil, often seasoned by lemon juice.Olive oil, herbs, garlic and lemon are typical flavors found in the Lebanese diet.Most often foods are either grilled, baked or sautéed in olive oil; butter or cream is rarely used other than in a few desserts. Vegetables are often eaten raw or pickled as well as cooked. Herbs and spices are used and the freshness of ingredients is important. In Lebanon, very rarely are drinks served without being accompanied by food. Similar to the tapas of Spain, mezeluri of Romania, and antipasto of Italy,mezze is an array of small dishes placed before the guests creating an array of colors, flavors, textures and aromas.
