Piyaz is a cold white bean salad with onions, tomatoes, and olive oil.
Typically served along with the Turkish grilled meatballs called Köfte, this refreshing salad cools your mouth after a piping hot bite of meat. The acidity aids in digestion, and the flavor is delicious.
Though beans are not native to Turkey, the turks have embraced them wholeheartedly and produce a large variety of bean dishes.
