Mid-August, vacation time… We will travel with the taste: while sitting at the table you’ll enjoy the colorful cuisine of Morocco. Today we’re presenting a traditional meze: confis tomatoes with honey, sesame seeds and a mild spice mix 🙂 .
The meze are typical starters of Moroccan cuisine, served on the table in a myriad of small bowls and accompanied by fragrant loaves still warm.
If you try one of the recipes on the blog, take a photo and publish it on Instragam with the hashtag #fratelliaifornelli and tagging our profile @fratelliaifornelli.
