TARATO (Yogurt Soup)
Tarato comes from Bulgaria. The Jews of Bulgaria, like those of Holland, Greece, Turkey, and Italy, are descended from Jews expelled from Spain and Portugal in the 15 th century. This cold soup is particularly suitable for hot summer nights in Israel. Yogurt, the main ingredient, has been a popular food in Israel for many years.
Mix all ingredients except nuts. Sprinkle with nuts and cool in refrigerator for 2-3 hours before serving.
