Hi Michele! Thanks for the comments and for hosting such a wonderful challenge! From start to finish I had a blast with it, and it was a lot of fun to try something new.

We will be eating a lot more Mezze meals at our house in the future. Thanks again :)

This is exactly the kind of inclusive and creative challenge I look forward to every month. Your recipes for pita, hummus, and the falafel, turned out perfectly and exactly like what I have been looking for. Thank you again for such a wonderful challenge.

PS I will be enjoying my jar of lemons for many meals to come.

wow Michele, thanks for hosting the challenge. I've always loved middle-eastern food, so this was super fun :) btw do you have any tips for keeping the pita fresh, it seems to harden quite fast?

Thank you so much for the great challenge,I'd been thinking about cooking a mezze for so long and you finally got me to do it!! The pita bread turned out so well, I'll no longer be buying it! I froze a few individual batches of it :-)

Thank you again for hosting such a great challenge. thought it was fun to be able to choose our own plates. I loved what you made for your table. The pita bread looks so soft and chewy. See you next month!

2010-02-15T18:37:32.527-08:00

Kudos to you! I love all the challenges we have had but this by far was my fave. Not only did i learn a lot of middle eastern dishes, i got to learn some of their customs and traditions while researching for new mezze recipes.
The pita was great, i'm bake challenged, i don't know but anything w/ yeast just intimidates me, thought i'd mess up this recipe but followed it to a tee and i was tickled pink looking at the pitas ballooned=;) This recipe is a keeper. Oh, my husband asked me if i'm mezzed out yet...but as i'm looking through the rest of the blogs...i'm listing more mezze recipes to try! ha!ha!ha!

All of your dishes look wonderful, and I love the ...

2010-02-15T18:05:04.507-08:00

All of your dishes look wonderful, and I love the tablecloth! I can never get enough pita and hummus - next time I make it, I need to make a few more dishes too and make a dinner out of it.

2010-02-15T14:06:16.599-08:00

We were so excited when you announced the challenge, and we have been eating pita and hummus all month (quite literally, as it's cheap, nutritious and divine!). I learned a TON this month, and I'll probably spend a good chunk of the year reading and trying DC recipes! Thank you for a wonderful experience. :)

Your mezze spread looks great - thanks for hosting this fun and tasty challenge. The pita bread recipe is definintely a keeper - and I don't think we'll be buying hummus from now on either!

Thanks so much Michelle for this wonderful challenge..... it is an eye opener experience!

Btw, I was just curious how to keep the pita bread soft? I baked mine at 260C much longer than 3 minutes, maybe around 5-7 in order to get the golden color. And it turned out crispy at the beginning, but after one day it is just hard.. How do you resolve this? How is the right result?
