1/2 cup minced scallion (about 1 bunch)

cup fresh squeezed lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon cumin powder

1/2 teaspoon red chili flake

Kosher salt and coarsely ground black pepper (to taste)

Equipment:

oven

baking sheet

food processor

bowl

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 325 F. Place the nuts on a baking sheet and toast for about 10 minutes until they begin to emit a toasted nut aroma. Cool completely before using the nuts in the recipe. Remove the stems from the parsley and mince either by hand or with quick pulses in a food processor. The parsley should be finely minced, but if you use a food processor be careful not to pure it. The parsley should form a fluffy base for the other textures. Chop the olives, walnuts, and scallions by hand into a rough dice. Dice the prepared tomatoes and drain. Combine all of the chopped ingredients. Toss in a large wooden bowl with the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, cumin, and chili flakes. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.

Food Trivia

The banana tree is not a true fruit at all but a giant herb and the banana is actually its berry. A banana plant produces only one bunch or hand in its life, but that bunch may have between 100 to 400 bananas. Despite its phallic shape, the banana is sterile and no fertilization takes place in the banana flowers. A banana plant grows when one of its shoots is planted.
