Mazza

An assortment of foods served as appetizers, accompaniments to main dishes, or a complete meal.

A feature of Middle Eastern cuisine from Morocco to Persia, mazza is usually served with a beverage, and may be simple or elaborate. Typically, it consists of nuts, fresh vegetables and herbs, cheeses, salads and dips, savory pastries, and "miniature foods" (smaller versions of main dishes, including grilled meats, vegetable dishes, and beans).
