Kısır (pronounced kuh-suhr) is a beloved Turkish classic – a fine bulgur wheat salad traditionally made with tomato paste, parsley, and pomegranate molasses. Our version honors that foundation then takes a delicious detour.

We start with fine bulgur wheat, softened to fluffy perfection, then toss it with crisp mixed lettuce, fresh chives, sweet sun-dried tomatoes, shredded carrot, and vibrant red cabbage for crunch. Then come the surprises: ripe peach for juicy sweetness, creamy avocado for richness, and shaved Parmesan for salty, nutty depth. A drizzle of molasses syrup ties everything together – adding a sweet-tangy complexity that balances the earthy bulgur and bright vegetables.

It’s familiar yet unexpected. A salad that thinks it’s a meal. Perfect on its own or as a refreshing side to any kebab.
