Demonstrate arranging the ingredients on a cutting board, starting with dips like tzatziki in the center.

Place olives with a sprig of rosemary on the board for decoration.

Add pita chips between the hummus and tzatziki.

Cut chunks of feta cheese and place them on the board, suggesting marinating in olive oil and herbs as an option.

Drizzle olive oil over the tzatziki, feta cheese, and hummus, and sprinkle sumac over the hummus and oregano over the feta cheese.
