Fattoush Salad with Tomatoes & Peaches

Cultural Context

Fattoush is a traditional Lebanese salad that showcases the bounty of fresh vegetables and herbs, often featuring leftover pita bread. It reflects the resourcefulness of Lebanese cuisine, turning stale bread into a vibrant dish. The addition of fruits like peaches adds a modern twist, enhancing the salad's sweetness and flavor profile. Fattoush is enjoyed worldwide, particularly in Middle Eastern restaurants, where it serves as a refreshing accompaniment to grilled meats and other dishes.

pita bread

🥗Healthier: whole grain bread

💰Cheaper: tortilla

Whole grain bread adds fiber, while tortillas are often less expensive.

peaches

🥗Healthier: nectarines

💰Cheaper: apricots

Nectarines provide similar flavor and texture, while apricots can be more affordable.

1

Preheat oven to 350°. Toss together torn pita pieces, 1/4 cup of the oil and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt in a medium bowl until coated. Spread in an even layer on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Toast in oven until crisp and golden, 10 to 12 minutes, stirring halfway through cook time. Remove from oven; set aside until ready to use.

2

Whisk together lemon juice, vinegar and honey in a medium bowl. Slowly add remaining 3 tablespoons oil, whisking constantly. Whisk in pepper and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.

3

Place tomatoes, peach, onion, basil, mint, parsley and toasted pita in a large bowl. Add dressing, and toss to combine. Sprinkle with sumac.
