Ingredients diff
- 3 ripe tomatoes, cut into wedges
- 1 English cucumber, sliced
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
- 4 oz feta, broken into chunks
- 1/2 cup Kalamata olives
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
Steps diff
- Cut tomatoes, cucumber, and onion into rustic chunks and place in a wide bowl.
- Whisk olive oil, vinegar, oregano, salt, and pepper until lightly emulsified.
- Dress the vegetables and toss gently, then let stand 5 minutes.
- Add olives and feta last so the cheese stays in larger pieces.
- Finish with another pinch of oregano and serve at cool room temperature.
Technique notes diff
- Seasoning tomatoes early | Salt amplifies sweetness and aromatic perception. | It deepens flavor in a no-cook salad.
- Acid, salinity, and texture balancing | In no-cook dishes, contrast between acidity, seasoning, and texture drives flavor intensity and perceived freshness. | This recipe relies on bright seasoning and contrast instead of heat-driven browning for depth.
