FATTOUSH - TOASTED BREAD SALAD



Fattoush - Toasted Bread Salad image

Fattoush is a classic Lebanese dish. It is often eaten by itself as a starter or light lunch. Saumac is an essential ingredient. It is a spice that is made from the dried, powdered berries of the sumac tree. It was my first time trying Saumac and I really enjoyed it, next time I would add one more teaspoon of the Saumac. This was used as a side salad for Recipe #218539 . This recipe comes from a book called "The Lebanese Cookbook" by Hussien Dekmak

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe vegetables. This will give your fattoush salad the best flavor and texture.
  • Cut the vegetables into bite-sized pieces. This will make them easier to eat and will help them to absorb the dressing.
  • Toast the bread before adding it to the salad. This will give it a nice crispy texture and will help it to soak up the dressing.
  • Use a light dressing. A heavy dressing will overwhelm the delicate flavors of the vegetables.
  • Add some herbs to the dressing. This will give it a fresh, flavorful taste.
  • Serve the fattoush salad immediately. This will prevent the vegetables from becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

Fattoush is a refreshing and flavorful salad that is perfect for a summer meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. With its combination of fresh vegetables, crispy bread, and tangy dressing, fattoush is a salad that everyone will enjoy.
