If you don&rsquo;t find parsley in your area, you can use cilantro.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The main ingredient in this Mediterranean chickpea salad recipe is Sumac. Sumac is a Mediterranean herb and is one of my favorites. It has a tangy, lemony flavor that brightens this Balela salad.<\/p>\n<p>Trader Joe&rsquo;s Balela Salad is very famous. But I prefer to make my Middle Easter Bean Salad at home instead of buying from the store.
