- A local seasoning called sammak gives this salad a different and slightly astringent taste. The original recipe uses leftover, dry Arabic bread, but crumbled melba toast may be substituted.
- Put toasted pcs of bread in large salad bowl. Sprinkle with sammak water or possibly lemon juice. (Sammak water is prepared by crushing a Tbsp. of seeds and steeping them in half c. o water for 15 min. Work seeds between fingers to extract essence. Wear rubber gloves as juice stains the fingers.) Add in minced cucumbers or possibly lettuce, green pepper, tomato, parsley, mint, baqli. Sprinkle minced onions with salt and add in. Mix well and add in extra virgin olive oil slowly. Taste. Adjust salt. Garlic pounded to a paste with salt and lemon juice may be added. Sprinkle with a tsp. of pounded sammak if available.
