We are traveling to Iran today as we Eat the World.......

Cam is hosting this month and invited us to share an Iranian recipe with our readers today.  I love Middle Eastern food and have shared many recipes.  I was looking for something new to make when I came across this salad, perfect for using up the bounty on my counter from generous neighbors.

Let's see what the others are serving up.......

• Sālād-é-Shirāzi by A Day in the Life on the Farm
• Sohan-e Qom (Saffron Brittle) by Amy's Cooking Adventures

Not all the ingredients for this salad came from the neighbors.  My garden is overrun with mint each year.  I planted one small little plant when we first moved in, and it took over.  I've given up trying to control it and give away, use, and dry as much as I can.
