My dear friend Christie is here visiting from Austin so of course we had to get into the city today. She is a fan of all water craft so the obvious choice was to take the Ferry over. It was rainy today so we decided to hole up in the Ferry Building, not a bad place to hole up I might add. We ambled through, sampling along the way and then decided to head to Bouli Bar. We shared a Mediterranean salad and a spicy lamb pizza. Both were yummy but the salad was worthy of sharing. It was very fresh and satisfying and easy to re-create at home.
The base was cooked Bulgar. The greens were parsley, purslane and mint with some frisee. I would omit the frisee and bump up the herbs a bit more. There was pomegranate pips, green onion, pistachios and some crumbled ricotta salata. Ricotta salata is a dry salty cheese. You could substitute some feta for the ricotta salata if it is hard to find. It was dressed in a light lemony dressing. I would use the dressing in the persimmon and pomegranate salad post.
If you haven't used Bulgar before, just follow the directions right on the package.
Christie and I both agreed that this salad would be good with some leftover turkey added to it!
Enjoy!
