1 tablespoon white wine vinegar (or try malt or cider vinegar)
1/2 medium onion, thinly sliced
3 1/2 ounces pitted medjool dates, quartered lengthwise (100g)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (30g)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 small pita bread, roughly torn into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 cup whole unsalted almonds, coarsely chopped (75g)

5 ounces baby spinach leaves (150g)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Add the pita and almonds and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring all of the time, until the pita is crunchy and golden brown. Remove from the heat and mix in the sumac, red pepper flakes, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside to cool.
  • When you are ready to serve, toss the spinach leaves with the pita mix in a large mixing bowl. Add the dates and red onion, the remaining olive oil, the lemon juice, and another pinch of salt. Taste for seasoning and serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!

BABY SPINACH SALAD WITH DATES AND ALMONDS



Baby Spinach Salad With Dates and Almonds image

Sumac, a tart, deep-red spice, is a key ingredient for this recipe from Yotam Ottolenghi, which was featured in a Times article about his cookbook with Sami Tamimi, "Jerusalem." Procuring the spice may be the most challenging thing about this refreshing, well-balanced salad. The pita and almonds are cooked for a few minutes on the stovetop, but that is the only heat required. As for the sumac, it can be found at Middle Eastern groceries, in a well-stocked spice aisle or, as always, online.
