About

Turkish salad to us is not Turkish and it is not a salad it’s really more of a relish, usually found on falafel stands around Israel. It is sweet, a little spicy, and very piquant. It makes a good complement to crudités and fritters, or can be served with tortillas or a slice of grilled haloumi.
