Just made this recipe and it is delicious. I have had Jerusalem salad many times in Israel and this captures the taste. Oh, be sure and add some fresh garlic to the tahini sauce. Wow, wow, wow!

Hi
I don’t know if the chain exists in the States, but in Canada ‘The Bulk Bran’ sells the most delicious falafel mix. All you have to do is add water and fry em up in a pan.

I also have a question regarding tahini. I am only able to find a powder version. Any ideas? Is it more akin to tahini paste (if I add water?) or more like Tahini sauce?

Along with a lot of the variations noted above, I like salads like this with either toasted or split and deep-fried pita bits included in the salad. numnum.

All-around fantastic site, Lolo.

Great site I am a non- vegan and had my sister (Vegan) tell me about your site I thought I would not be much of a fan but after seeing all the creative ways you use fruits and veggies I am slowly converting. Thanks for all the great recipes…..

I’m not sure if Sam’s comment is really political. My Palestinian friends make this salad without tahini or yogurt — just lemon juice and salt — and with mint instead of parsley. It’s a very different taste, but YUMMY.

A salad very similar to this is made at our two local Moroccan restaurants. They add cumin and mint to theirs, though.
I’m going to make your version tonight and see how it differs!
Thanks for the idea!
