How to Build the Perfect Mediterranean Party Platter
Are you ready to take your party platter to the next level? In this recipe, I'll show you how to create a mean and messy Mediterranean platter that will impress your guests. It all starts with three delectable dips: hummus, roasted red pepper hummus, and tangy Greek tzatziki sauce. Nestled in the middle of the platter, these dips set the stage for an explosion of flavors.
To complement the dips, I recommend adding some roasted vegetables like eggplant, along with Mediterranean marinated favorites such as olives, artichokes, and mushrooms. For a touch of indulgence, include some classic cheeses like feta and baby mozzarella. And don't forget to add a palette cleanser in the form of fresh fruit, such as figs or grapes.
To finish off your platter, drizzle your favorite extra virgin olive oil over the hummus and sprinkle it with sumac for an extra burst of flavor. With these simple steps, you'll create a Mediterranean party platter that will have everyone coming back for more. Impress your guests and elevate your next gathering with this mouthwatering creation.
