Middle Eastern cooking spans a vast and diverse region, but certain threads run through all of it: a love of mezze (small shared dishes), the perfume of warm spices like allspice and cinnamon in savory dishes, and the generous use of fresh herbs, pomegranate, and nuts as garnishes. Shawarma, falafel, fattoush, and muhammara are street food classics known worldwide, while slow-cooked lamb dishes like maqluba (upside-down rice) and mansaf reveal the depth of home cooking. Tahini, za'atar, and sumac are the spice rack essentials.
