I am so excited. Fixed this tonight and even my finicky son ate it. I had been trying to find a recipe for this that actually had some flavor. It seems that some Turkish eat this very bland. Had tasted this at a local restaurant and it was so flavorful. Never even heard of sumac–don’t know where to find it yet, but, even without it I was able to arrive at a very close version of the salad I have so been craving ever since that Valentine Dinner. (found that lemon zest and sea salt are concidered a substitute) Do remember the amazing flavor of the spice sprinkled along the edge of the plate being something I would definitely search for–hoping that is sumac! Thanks for sharing! Can’t wait to try some more!

Hi Zerrin,

I came across your blog as I was researching about Shepperd Salad. I made this salad based on Sunny Anderson’s (Food Network) recipe last week, and now I am working on my post about it. I usually try to find out the story/origin of the food so I can write about it, and through google, I found your blog and the story of this salad. Thank you for sharing the story, and unknowingly to me, I now know and made two of the Turkish/Middle Eastern dishes. The other one is Circassian salad, which I found through Simply Recipes blog, and I love that chicken salad.

Again, thanks for sharing the story and nice meeting you
