Fattoush with Crispy Pita

Levantine vegetable salad with radishes, tomatoes, cucumbers, and fresh herbs. The dish's name comes from the Arabic word "fatt" — meaning to break or crumble: vegetables are cut into large chunks. The main components are sumac spice and crispy pieces of fried pita bread, which give the salad its characteristic flavor and texture.
