Notes about this recipe

    A lovely salad that’s perfect for summer tomatoes and cucumbers, I agree that the sumac adds a floral note that I prefer to lemon and this is a great compliment to the oilier nature of the kebabs. This and the Baku-style fish kebabs make a good combination and an easy summer dinner.

    The softness of the very ripe tomatoes contrasted nicely with the crispness of my cucumbers and the sharp sweetness of the onion. The sumac brings a tart sharpness which is more complex and less aggressive perhaps than lemon juice, as it also has a hint of sweetness and a subtle hint of floral fruitiness. It also brings a beautiful color to the salad, a feast for the eyes as well as the taste buds.
