Baba Ganoush

Fire transforms everything it touches, and nowhere is this more obvious than in a proper baba ganoush. The eggplant that starts dense and bitter becomes silky and complex after a good char, developing those deep, smoky notes that make this dip irresistible.

Lebanon

Lebanese hospitality doesn't start with hello—it starts with setting more food on the table than you could possibly eat, then insisting you haven't eaten enough. In Lebanon, the word "mezze" doesn't just describe small plates; it describes a way of life where meals become gatherings, and every gathering becomes a celebration.

Turkey

Turkish cuisine doesn't just bridge Europe and Asia—it marries them, creating something entirely new from the union. Walking through Istanbul's Grand Bazaar or along the Bosphorus, you taste this geographical reality in every dish: Ottoman palace sophistication meets Anatolian peasant wisdom, Mediterranean freshness mingles with Central Asian spices, and the result is a cuisine that feels both exotic and familiar.

Dan Dan Noodles

Found these at a delicious restaurant in Montreal's Chinatown and immediately knew I had to recreate them at home. The secret to proper dan dan noodles isn't the sauce—it's the rhythm. Toss too gently and the noodles stay naked; too aggressively and everything clumps.
