Slice the onion thinly and drain off excess liquid so the dressing stays balanced.
Cut the salad ingredients into bite-sized pieces and drain them well so the dressing does not thin out on the plate.
Bloom the sumac with lemon juice and olive oil so the sourness spreads evenly.
Toss the tulum cheese, onion, and parsley with the sumac dressing for 1 minute without crushing them.
Transfer to a serving plate and bring it to the table while the dressing is still glossy.
💡 Tip: Leaving the tulum cheese in larger pieces gives the salad a better balance of salt and texture.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Add coarsely chopped walnuts and pomegranate seeds on the side for a winter salad presentation.
