Swabian Shopska Salad: Wundersalat Off Track and Slightly out of Focus in Tübingen


Shopska at last! Visiting the Umbrian & Provencal Market and the cosmo relatives in Tübingen led to this appealing creation that may be Bulgarian by origin.

All of these were treasures grown in fresh air by happy people, and incredibly tasty:
tomatoes
cucumber
zucchini

 olives (these were lemon filled, delicious)

onion (rings)
lovage
basil
chives
or whatever fresh herbs you have available

lemon juice/vinegar
olive oil (use the feta marinade if you have extra)

Last not least:
marinated sheep's milk feta crumbs as topping

Seasoning came from a jar that was suspiciously labelled "Bulgarian mixed spices" - sorry. No idea what was in it, I would assume some paprika, garlic, salt, pepper and chili (and something secret), and I guess you could not go too wrong with good old Brathähnchenwürzsalz, either. Just take any seasoning mix that you have sitting on the shelf and that you were never quite sure about what it was meant for. Every now and then, one has to be brave and adventurous.
