my go-to salad and sumac love


my go to salad: kale, tomatoes, cucumbers, raw white onions, lemon, olive, salt, sumac (my favourite) and sometimes parsley if i have it.

it's kind of like a fattoush salad without the pita chips. this is our favourite salad. it's so tart and delicious. sumac is probably my favourite spice. sumac grows in subtropical and temperate regions in Africa and North America. they start as shrubs and small trees (apparently Toronto has wild sumac!!!) the fruits are then dried and ground to produce a tangy crimson spice. it has a lemony taste and i could probably eat it in on anything. another way i love using sumac is sprinkled on homemade popcorn drizzled with olive oil and nutritional yeast, yum!
