For an extra layer of flavor, consider grilling the pita bread lightly before frying. If pomegranate molasses is unavailable, you can substitute it with a mixture of pomegranate juice and a touch of lemon juice, reduced slightly over low heat. Adjust the amount of pomegranate molasses to your liking, depending on how tart or sweet you prefer your dressing. Make sure to dry the herbs well before chopping to prevent the salad from becoming soggy. Fattoush is best served immediately after assembling to maintain the crispness of the vegetables and pita chips.
