Slice the onion thinly into half-moons, rub with salt, rinse under cold water and drain to remove the sharpness.
Drain the cooked white beans and bring them to room temperature.
In a separate bowl, whisk the sumac, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and black pepper into a dressing.
Gently combine the beans, onion and dressing in a large bowl, taking care not to crush the beans.
Cover and rest for 10 minutes at room temperature so the sumac settles into the beans.
Transfer to a serving plate, sprinkle with finely chopped parsley and optional red pepper flakes, and serve.
💡 Tip: If you mix the beans with the dressing while hot, the salad turns watery; combine everything at room temperature. Rubbing the onion with salt and rinsing it removes its harshness.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: You can add boiled egg slices and grilled meatballs on the side.
