Fattoush, pronounced "fadash", is a Levantine [[salad]] made from several garden [[vegetables]] and [[toasted]] or [[fried]] pieces of [[pita bread]]. Fattoush salad allows cooks to use seasonal produce by mixing different [[vegetables]] and [[herbs]] according to taste, and also to make use of pitas that have gone stale. The vegetables are cut into relatively larges pieces compared to [[Tabbouleh]] which requires ingredients to be finely chopped. [[Sumac]] is usually used to give Fattoush its sour taste.
