Tabbuleh
2 servings
60 minutes
Tabbouleh is a light and refreshing salad from the Levant that has become an integral part of Turkish cuisine. Its base is tender bulgur that absorbs the aromas of fresh herbs and vegetables, creating a harmony of flavors. Crunchy cucumbers, juicy tomatoes, and fragrant parsley add freshness to the salad, while mint adds subtle notes of coolness. The dressing made from olive oil and soy sauce enriches the taste with a slight tanginess. Tabbouleh is not just a dish but a true symbol of Mediterranean hospitality, perfect as a side dish, appetizer, or standalone meal for those who appreciate flavor and health.
