Palestinian "Yasma's Salad" | Sahtein!

Y’all are going to love this one. What my family calls "Yasma’s salad", or commonly known as a “Shepard salad” is a family favorite and I’m sure it will become yours too.
It is beautifully adaptable and I change what I put in it depending on the day. It can be as simple as onions, tomatoes and a lemon-olive-mint dressing, or as complex and colorful as the one I made here today. Plant based, if you omit the halloumi cheese.
Let me know how you decide to make yours! ALF SAHTEIN!

So I just ate that and it is probably the best salad I've ever had. Really, I'm not one to comment on KZbin on the regular or anything, but it deserves it. Again, best salad I've ever had.

[@NadiaGilbert]

Yessss right???

[@Renaissance2412]

So glad i have discovered this wonderful channel

[@bruttosporcoecattivo]

Never been to Palestine or the middle east, but the cuisine there looks delicious and healthy. Probably one of the tastiest in the world. I've prepared hummus many times and now I'm going to try this wonderful salad. Love you, from Italy. 🇵🇸 🇮🇹

[@itravisoni]

What was the last ingredient.

[@zamfully]

Nadia is sooo charming and your food is a part of my kitchen.

[@UtaRefs0n]

Nadia! I just made this salad for the first time. I had to go to a lot of stores! but i got the chives, the right cheese, the dried mint. this salad is a B L E S S I N G! WOW WOW WOW thank you so much, tell Yasma hiiiiiieeeeeeee

[@adryjzz]

This salad looks awesome but girl! your skin shines shines. So glad I found your channel

[@mouizhamdi6420]

It reminds me the salad that i used to eat when i was visiting my grandparents in Tunisia during summer from France...the only différence is that we add apple in it

[@JudgeyJudgeyable]

I eat a salad of tomato-onion-cucumber-lemon-olive oil all the time because it’s easy and delicious. I have to try your version ASAP

[@keeeksmonster]

It is so considerate of you to give vegan alternatives and time stamps. Your channel is a gem, and I swear I will cook every single (vegan) recipe!!

[@NadiaGilbert]

I try to make our food as accessible as possible to all so that means a lot. Thank you! Sahtein :)

[@kerryneylan7978]

Agreed that it's nice of you to suggest vegan alternatives. I miss halloumi although here in the UK we have a couple of great feta alternatives. I love middle eastern breakfasts.

[@beingscouted]

The algorithm has blessed me today! I stumbled across your veggie broth video ten minutes ago and now I am working my way through the other videos on your channel. Everything looks AMAZING!

[@jwind624]

You are so fun to watch!!! Can’t wait to try some of these recipes!!!

[@noorelhammamy5951]

Keeo going!!! I am egyptian and love cooking

[@cornfloats7004]

What a lovely recipe! And I love your family story/ connection. Beautiful recipe video, young lady!

[@luke28]

This indeed might just became a staple in my kitchen, very elagent and light, yet I it must taste wonderful! I can't wait to try it out!

[@jokerswearblack]

One of my favourite food channels. Keep it coming.

[@PurpleWhiteFlowers]

Looks delicious!! Cannot wait to make it. Thank you for sharing 💐

[@SpiderJerusalem13]

Not only am I loving all the recipes, you are 100% engaging in these videos. Where so many videos are just someone's hands, or are so very dry, there's the engagement as if the viewer is actually there in the kitchen with you. Being someone who was raised in a kitchen, and consider my kitchen to be my "zen garden", I'm sending the same in you. I'm blathering, 😂, but it's nice to see someone who enjoys the same things about cooking as myself.

[@kyle5709]

Thank you for being so awesome and inspiring

[@navajogrande1059]

Mashallah Nadia, keep posting . Love your channel.

[@cookingbooks4688]

This looks awesome, made ful the other day and love the channel!

[@andreamarr7213]

I am thrilled to learn to make delicious foods from your kitchen. It has been a difficult year and it is nice to see someone so authentic, genuine and kind. ❤🇨🇦❤

[@MultiSaesha]

Nadia you are absolutely fabulous ❤ Thank you for these recipes and thank you for being such a vibrant, positive energy ball! It's a source of joy to be with you in your kitchen through Sahtein :) Loads of Love to you!

[@charlesharmon9449]

[@dingoproductions]

Ok, I am officially hooked to this channel now! My husband is half Greek Cypriot and a lot of these recipes are similar to his (and my) tastes...thank you, Nadia!

[@kassiapencek6185]

Oooh la la!!!! I'm gonna try this! Thank you

[@LaLaInNOVA]

This looks amazing.

[@barbaramulik9617]

Love ur recipe👌🥰

[@karenfernandes08]

I love your channel ❤ so happy to find it today

[@namotenashi]

It's a refreshing salad that is very colorful and has a nice vegetable texture! Good sound ~. As you said, it is a salad that you can enjoy with various ingredients. I love this!

[@BBHubbs]

Your channel is a gift, truly! I have binged on your vegan (nearly vegan) recipe videos, today, and feel incredibly inspired. The colours, the simplicity, the layers of flavours 🤤 Plus, I have learned a few things from you, as well! Thank you for sharing your recipes, techniques, fun personality, creativity and time! ❤️

[@crazyredheadart713]

Browned some leftover cheese cubes from a party and browned and drained them until they were a chewy crispy pancake, cut it up and used it instead. Used basil pesto I had on hand..so delicious. thank you

[@marymcginn8761]

You are so cute!! That salad looks so delicious! And your blouse is very pretty, too. Thanks for your hard work bringing these videos to us!

[@samantahernandez7928]

I love ur recipes, thank u lots. Greetings from Mexico. ❤

[@ToppyTree]

Great food, great presenting great production! I can't wait to try your recipes 😃

[@md247md]

Love this woman

[@TheBitewithJackie]

I just love your personality ❤️ probably my favorite salad of all time. DEF have done the avocado and zaatar additions but I’ve always eaten the fried halloumi on the side. Love the idea that it kind of becomes like a crouton in your/your cousin’s version

[@NadiaGilbert]

Yes it is totally like a salty crouton! Yasma says it is the most important part. I don't always add it but it is definitely a special treat. I love this salad more than most things ❤️

[@deanwaddington2799]

my new favourite cook.

[@johnlove5347]

Keep going !your programme has got style! You will win through! My best wishes Madame! Simon

[@markg.1159]

I made this for dinner last night! First time cooking with haloumi in a very long time, and the first time successfully. I also added some pine nuts, which worked well. It was a really nice salad for a mid-summer night. The spice shop here in Boston where I got the dried mint also sells za'atar, so I got some to try with some other recipe of yours.

[@BGeezy4sheezy]

Looks amazingly good! Great channel

[@tomiwirless1761]

Made your salad today, this is sooo good! Will become part of my daily diet...

[@eldritchinterface7481]

Thank you from Sydney, Australia. This exact salad reminded me of lunchtime in Alicante, Spain with my Mama's family. I'm gonna have to visit them all now when international travel allows it.

[@aastha79]

I love your videos and your kitchen🤩

[@johnlove5347]

Like a lot ! Really good ! Simon

[@wakeupamerica948]

She is absolutely beautiful and awesome, Shokran Sahtein....

[@samueltekle5642]

Love your channel. So much goodness 😋👌🏾. Keep up the good work sister 👍🏾

[@mariosk.9916]

You are one of the few who are pronouncing halloumi correctly as we do in Cyprus. Much love from Cyprus, your middle eastern neighborhood.

[@09mjeternity]

This was perfect

[@johnlarbi]

Beautiful stuff Both the salad and you Nadia. Big fan here. Love from Sweden and Morocco😀

[@kathrynmcwhirk6026]

You are awesome! Love your food😀

[@angelviannedewolfe7612]

I am absolutely drooling here. I'm buying these ingredients when I go shopping next. I already know I'll love it. Plus I'm vastly reducing my intake of processed foods and carbs and going back to plant based eating ❤😘 from the Scottish Highlands x

[@anthropologicalminds2855]

Love it when you speak Arabic, would love to hear it more and learn!

[@melissakemp2741]

So good,fried Halloumi is the best 👌

Mahshallah

[@HerAeolianHarp]

Your recipes look delicious. Happy to subscribe.

[@deepalib3096]

Nice recipe!

[@bauerhausws7611]

This is my daughter in law’s favorite salad. We learned to make halloumi cheese in order to make it as halloumi is not available in Juneau AK

[@SuouEtsumi]

Gonna try this tomorrow! It sounds a bit like one of the salads from Ottolenghi's book, which is a family favourite Plus, you make it sound so easy and chill. Love your vibe!

[@SuouEtsumi]

Yum! it's a keeper

[@jojokat777]

I make my own halloumi cheese. I purchase my raw milk from the Amish, it’s a golden yellow color since it is high in butterfat. It’s so easy and fun to make.

[@parnashish1910]

Looks wonderful :)

[@rackiaa3715]

You are such a joy to watch!! I just found you.😃

[@monwamfobo4966]

I have recommended it to my friends in South Africa..

[@elsalisa146]

I found plant based halloumi from Violife. Gonna try it.

[@qubadmalik1]

Hey Kid, You need to make more videos. This one is very nice too. Reminds me of our roots.

[@aldralee]

Thank you, algorithm! Love the open shelves and can’t wait to see (and make!) all the goodies on this channel.

[@padraig5335]

Right? This is awesome

[@aldralee]

[@binker46]

Really cool salad. Used feta cheese. Nice!

[@argaritasolomonidou5947]

Love from Cyprus🌞❤🌞❤🌞❤

[@chrisandersen5635]

I fricken adore haloumi, and any salad along these lines whether Middle Eastern, Korean, etc. Living in California, where you can find avocados everywhere, I find the shi shi funny. They can be expensive, but my corner store in the Tenderloin in San Francisco even sells them. Anyway, newly addicted to your channel. Catching up. Already love ful, first one I watched, as I have Palestinian friends. Happy Weekend.

[@ranjanshah7388]

Yummy 😋 nadia

[@koulmeadi]

Thanks Nadia

[@m.z.2767]

Try adding a little bit of pomegranate sauce (Dibs El Romman) to this salad and ENJOY!!

[@healthyfoodlover1124]

That's good ❤

[@danielhetzel7388]

A certified belter of a salad, I threw in some raddishes, red cabbage and walnuts to give a delicious dish a tad more crunch

[@cutecats532]

That's a cool tip about putting onions in the fridge. I light a candle near where I'm cutting and it draws the fumes to it somehow. Also I'm vegan but maybe I'll try to fry some vegan cheese eventhough it's gunna be different. Miyoko's makes a vegan mozzarella that's also about $8 or maybe I could make a homemade one. Edit: I love mint!

[@ry8102]

My go to quick salad. I like to add chopped pickled cucumber and fresh mint to mine.

[@charlotteschwarzkopf6125]

it does look really tasty :p

[@kripajohn8488]

You are so BEAUTIFUL. Especially I love your short hairstyle.

[@georgebaddour]

Yes so yummy. Thank you. Try it with Palestinian Nabulsi cheese, it is even tastier..

[@user-qj2wt5cs6p]

Nice 😋 yum yum!!!It is pretty much a parsley salad peppered with tomato, onion, cracked wheat, and lemon juice!!!🍀

[@NadiaGilbert]

No cracked wheat in here, you're thinking of tabbouleh, but yes to everything else haha

[@lisalisa1656]

I am glad I live in Dearborn dried mint everywhere cheap...I prefer with zataar

[@flowercook3915]

Sometimes I add some 'slightly under soaked' bulgher and it will absorb the juices,I usually use fresh mint during the summer..and perhaps some kalamatas. Now to find some haloumi..

[@TheShayneMay]

Good trick for the onion. I always cut them in half, and then run cold water over them for a minute or so.
