Mezes are “Hors d’oeuvres” or appetizers figuring mainly at meals accompanied by wine or ‘raki’ . Eaten sparingly, they arouse the appetite before the main meal. Yogurt is a main element used in Turkish ‘mezzes’ and an important element in Turkish Cuisine- In fact the word ‘yogurt’ is derived from the Turkish word yoğurt.

Yogurt, a contribution from the Turks to the world, has also become a popular health food. A staple in the Turkish diet, it has been known all along for its detoxifying properties. Other such beliefs, not yet supported by modern science, include the role of onion, used liberally in all dishes in strengthening the immune system; garlic for high blood pressure and olive oil as a remedy for forty-one ailments

It is said that three major kinds of cuisine exist in the world; Turkish, Chinese, and French. Fully justifying its reputation, Turkish Cuisine is always a pleasant surprise. Turkish cuisine has the added privilege of being at the cross-roads of the Far East and the Mediterranean, resulting in a long and complex history of Turkish migration from the steppes of Central Asia to Europe . Such unique characteristics and extensive history have bestowed upon Turkish cuisine a rich selection of dishes all of which can be prepared and combined with others to create meals of almost infinite variety.
