Etymology

Fattūsh is derived from the Arabic fatt "crush" and the suffix of Turkic origin -ūsh. Coining words this way was common in Levantine Arabic.

Ingredients

Fattush belongs to the family of dishes known as fattat (plural of fatteh), which use stale flatbread as a base.[1][2] Fattoush includes vegetables and herbs according to season and taste. The vegetables are cut into relatively large pieces compared to tabbouleh which requires ingredients to be finely chopped. Tanner's sumac is usually used to give fattoush its sour taste.

gollark: Maybe you could make some sort of fancy tool to automatically try and flatten stuff into fewer dimensions. Although this *may* be somewhat impossible.
gollark: So it's stored as... a mapping from dimension to position instead?
gollark: What do you mean "vector list storage"? Does it run-length-encode dimensions a bit or just use resizæble arrays for position?
