Fish Roe Salad (Taramosalata)
We put the bread in the water until it is soaked. We use a blender or a mortar to melt the chopped onion. We add the fish roe, we keep mixing for a while and then we add the bread crumb which must be well strained. We mix for a while and we pour the oil and the lemon juice successively without stopping to mix this mixture until it becomes smooth like a cream.
Tahini Salad
Mix the tahini with the water until it is diluted. Add the garlic and the salt. Pour the lemon juice slowly by mixing continuously. Serve the tahini salad with chopped parsley.
Prayer for Peace
Almighty God and Creator, You are the Father of all people on the earth. Guide, I pray, all the nations and their leaders in the ways of justice and peace. Protect us from the evils of injustice, prejudice, exploitation, conflict and war. Help us to put away mistrust, bitterness and hatred.
