About

During the long winter months when there are no tomatoes, we dream about fattoush, a variation of tabouleh made with toasted pita bread instead of cracked wheat. It is our favorite summer salad. Some versions of this recipe call for the addition of powdered sumac or chopped purslane. These are somewhat esoteric, but, if you have them, add a pinch of one or the other to the salad.
