Foraged Village Green · Warm Olive Oil Salad

Hubeiza (Wild Mallow) Salad

🥗
Photo coming soon

It's made from mallow leaves foraged wild from the hillsides rather than grown in any garden — a dish that starts with a walk, not a shopping trip.

Wild mallow leaves are foraged from the Galilee hillsides, then wilted and dressed warm with olive oil, lemon, and garlic. Druze village kitchens serve it as a simple side dish alongside pita, labneh, and other mezze.

Why it's made this way: The salad reflects the foraging traditions of Galilee's rural Druze villages, where wild greens gathered from the surrounding hills remain part of everyday home cooking.
