Hi, can anyone tell me the herb that is often sprickled on the salads in Turkey, Im not particulary fond of it and would like to know so I can tell them not to put it on, thanx Bee
-
Could be Sumak / Sumac / Summaq. It's not a herb, it's a spice. Brownish-burgundy-red colour.
-
If it's the red spice I think it's Sarmak. Otherwise, if it is a herb it's parsley
-
think it must be parsley, i'ts green and chopped up finely
-

-

Parsley is Maydanoz
Coriander is Kisnis (pronounced kish -nish)
Many people think it's coriander, but it is flat leaf parsley.
In fact you'll rarely find fresh coriander for sale in the Fethiye area.
-
Flat leaf parsley. Stronger than the normal parsley and tastes similar to coriander!
-
did you know parsley has more vit c than any other standard culinery vegetable!? its brilliant for skin and arteries and even brightens the eyes!! force it down!!!:P
-
I find Effes brightens the eyes
-

-
