Shʿifurah
Shaʿifūra (شعيفورة) or jaʿifūra (جعيفورة) is a typical Syrian salad consisting of shanklīsh cheese with chopped tomato and onion and olive oil. Shanklīsh or ''sourkah'' is an intensely flavored ball-shape cheese that has been cured with thyme. Shaʿifūra salad has a popular origin, and in each home it is prepared in a different way. It may also include cucumber, green pepper, carrot, parsley or fresh mint, all finely chopped. It is served as a ''mezze'' for breakfast or dinner. In restaurants in Banyas, Tartous or Latakia and other villages of the coastal area of Syria, shaʿifūra is served to customers as an appetiser. In the last century, people from the coast repopulated central Syria ( Homs, Hama and Salamiya), bringing their taste for shanklīsh and shaʿifūra. It is also known as bāzarkān (بازركان), a name possibly of Turkish origin, and is sometimes called simply shanklish salad (سلطة شنكليش). It is the most common way to ser ...

A salad is a dish consisting of mixed, mostly natural ingredients with at least one raw ingredient. They are typically served at room temperature or chilled, though some can be served warm. Condiments and salad dressings, which exist in a variety of flavors, are often used to enhance a salad.

Other types include bean salad, tuna salad, bread salad (e.g. fattoush, panzanella), vegetable salads without leafy greens (e.g. Greek salad, potato salad, coleslaw), sōmen salad (a noodle-based salad), fruit salad, and desserts like jello salad.
