I first discovered this delicious salad on one of my trips to the Pittsburgh Folk Festival. After eating the small sample (I had been sampling everywhere!) I decided to try to replicate the recipe. Since then, it has been made in ample batches each week during the hot summer months. Actually, I am surprised at how quickly this salad is consumed! Now that the warm weather is here and the requests are for "light food", this salad will once again be part of the weekly menu. If only I could keep up with the demand...
Bulgarian Salad
4 large Cucumbers
3 medium Tomatoes chopped
1 medium Green peppers chopped
2 tablespoon Sugar
1 tablespoon Kosher Salt
1/2 cup Vegetable oil
1/2 cup Red wine vinegar
8 ounces Feta cheese, crumbled
Peel cucumbers and slice in half. Remove seeds with a spoon and chop into 1/4 inch squares. Place into a large bowl. Add green peppers and tomatoes. Pour vinegar and oil on vegetables and sugar and salt. Mix vegetables and dressing mixture and refrigerate for one hour to allow the flavors to combine. Serve with crumbled feta cheese.

Looks so colourful. iS IT POSSIBLE TO REPLACE RED WINE VINEGAR WITH THE NORMAL VINEGAR??
ReplyDeleteIt shouldn't be a problem to replace it. And it would also then be halal, right? I have probably used regular vinegar a time or two when I was out of the red wine vinegar. You could also use cider vinegar if you wanted. :)
