Appetizer Making Workshop with a Chef
The Meze Making Workshop is a culinary workshop where you'll experience the meze culture, one of the most social and sharing aspects of Turkish cuisine, through hands-on activities. This experience isn't just about tasting; participants actively engage in stages such as chopping, mixing, marinating, preparing sauces, balancing spices, and presentation, all under the guidance of a professional chef.
In the workshop, traditional Turkish meze varieties such as yogurt-based mezes, olive oil-based mezes, tahini mixtures, vegetable-based mezes, and spicy spreads are prepared; the menu can vary according to the season, group size, and special requests. The chef demonstrates step-by-step how to create the right balance of sauces with ingredients like olive oil, yogurt, tahini, and pomegranate molasses, how spices can complement the dish without overpowering it, and how to aesthetically plate the prepared mezes.
At the end of the workshop, which lasts approximately 2-2.5 hours, participants taste the mezes they have prepared together at a sharing-focused tasting table. The experience concludes with a social and enjoyable meal sharing, in keeping with the nature of meze culture. After the workshop, the recipes of the mezes prepared are shared with the participants, so that the experience can be repeated at home.
This experience offers a unique and social activity for individual travelers, couples, groups of friends, and corporate events who want to learn about Turkish cuisine and table culture not just by tasting, but by practicing it.
