Ingredients
For The Dressing:
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 garlic clove peeled and minced
- 2 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
For Piyaz Salad:
- 1/2 small red onion sliced thinly in half moon shape (1/2 cup)
- 2 cans white bean Cannelini or Navy Beans would work - drained and rinsed
- 2 medium sized tomatoes sliced ½ inch in half moon shape
- ½ cup Italian parsley roughly chopped

Optional:

Instructions
- To make the dressing: Place olive oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic clove, lemon juice, kosher salt, and black pepper in a bowl and whisk until fully incorporated. Set aside.
- Place sliced red onion in a bowl of water and let soak for 5 minutes, drain.*
- Assemble the salad: Place white beans, drained red onions, sliced tomatoes, and chopped parsley in a large bowl. Drizzle it with the dressing and sumac. Give it a gentle toss.
- Cover it with plastic wrap and let it sit in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving. This is an optional step but allows flavors to mingle and deliver a next level delicious salad.
- If preferred, garnish with black pitted olives and hard boiled eggs. Serve.
Notes
- Soaking red onions is an optional step. If you don’t have time, simply use sliced onions. I find that soaking them for a few minutes helps with digestion and tames their strong flavor.
- Antalya Piyaz made with tahini: If you have ever been to the Antalya province of Turkey, you may have had their version of this piyaz recipe made with tahini. If you want to give that version a try, add in a quarter cup of tahini (sesame paste) into the dressing and follow the rest of the recipe exactly written.
- Most people include this navy bean salad recipe as a part of their meal prep because it gets better as it sits. You can make the whole recipe a day in advance and serve it on the next day.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container upto 3 days in the fridge. You might have to taste the seasoning and add it if necessary.
