Where does the Shirazi lettuce come from<\/h2>\n\n

Tomato and cucumber salad<\/strong> is probably one of the simplest salads and can be found in every country in its own version. This variant has its origins in the Iranian city of Shiraz<\/em>, from which it takes its name: Shirazi<\/strong>. Only the best ingredients such as vegetables and herbs are used and cut into small cubes.<\/p>\n\n

In Iran, it is often served as a side dish and, with its sour note, goes perfectly with flatbread<\/a>, grilled meat<\/a> and vegetables<\/a> – it is part of the Persian mezze<\/strong> and belongs on every table.<\/p>\n\n

Ingredients for the tomato and cucumber salad<\/h2>\n\n

I prefer to make this delicious fresh salad in summer. This is simply because the tomatoes and cucumbers are then much more aromatic. And if I’m lucky, I sometimes get the ingredients fresh from a friend’s garden. Home-grown tomatoes, cucumbers, parsley, onions and last year there was even a lemon! When we have a barbecue together, he always asks for the Shirazi salad – and of course he gets it.<\/p>\n\n
