Tried this new place today. Was ok, but the meat was a little dry.

I'm ashamed to admit I've never done any canning or pickling. I'll make it one of my 2017 resolutions to change this.

As a person of Lebanese descent*, I find the concept of pickles in shawarma gross

*I am using my Lebanesce descent to legitimize my personal preferences.

It's easier than you would think. I won't dirty up Jorge's thread with pickle talk after this, but use a champagne grape based white vinegar and it's bomb.

And do not intermingle your Shawarma into the pickles.

Im Heinz 57 so everything becomes incorporated and becomes fusion.

PS: I really have missed you Jorge. I mean that.

I think I've only ever had doner, which is obviously amazing. I really need to educate myself on the differences between doner, shawarma and gyro.

My local Turkish restaurant uses the terms doner kebab and shawarma interchangeably. Truthfully I'm also a bit iffy on the difference.

Cooked on a skewer vs roasted on a spit

Jorge · **Posted:** Sun August 01, 2021 4:52 pm

But both shawarma and doner are roasted on a vertical spit, aren't they?

tragabigzanda · **Posted:** Sun August 01, 2021 5:48 pm

That’s not my understanding, but I could be wrong

Yup.

I thought the difference is primarily where they are from? Turkey vs. rest of the middle east?

Shawarma
