Persian Shirazi salad from Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat: Mastering the Elements of Good Cooking (page 230) by Samin Nosrat

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    This salad is in my rotation. I make it as a side any time I cook something middle eastern. I often serve with the saffron rice and yogurt sauce she also has in the cookbook with a protein.

    Fantastic salad - so fresh, and such a great pairing with other Persian dishes like ash reshteh. We skipped the bed of sliced heirloom tomatoes because it's still winter, and didn't miss it.

    The prep for this isn't minimal, but it's so worth it. what a way to take delight in tomatoes and herbs.
