International Falafel Day
June 12, 2024
On the 12th of June each year, it is time to celebrate one of the world’s favorite chickpea treats with International Falafel Day! A favorite among meat-eaters and vegetarians alike (the latter of whom will often find it presented as an alternative to meat), falafel is one food that certainly deserves its own day of recognition.Calling all fans of falafel! Deep-fried and composed of chickpeas or fava beans, this Middle Eastern food is often found wrapped up in a pita bread, or served with salad and sauces. No matter how this dish is served, falafel is a bit crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside and absolutely delicious in every way!
Origin: For the most part, many people agree that it was first eaten widely in Egypt, when Copitc Christians may have then used the dish as a replacement for meat during Lent (the season before Easter when Christians have traditionally fasted from eating meat).
