This recipe was inspired by Malak, a friend of WST's founder, Sarah, who first taught her how to make the tangy and crunchy Lebanese salad, fattoush. Lively and refreshing, it's perfect for warm weather and even more magical when made with peak-season produce. And while feta and olives may not be traditional elements of the salad, we welcome the brininess they add to Malak's version.
It was also Malak who introduced Sarah to sumac— a favorite ingredient of ours that adds its signature zip to several WST products, including the Appalachian Lemon Sea Salt featured in this recipe. In it, you'll find sumac from Skye 2 Farm, preserved lemons from Fermenti, and garlic and red onions from Gaining Ground Farm. Beyond salads, we love it on seafood, hummus, popcorn...the list goes on and on.
