Recipe of the Simple Summer Tomato Salad

If you’re looking to bring summer to your table on a plate, this tomato salad is perfect for you! Here is how to get the ball rolling to make the finest, tastiest, and most delicious salad for your next meal!

Choosing the Finest Tomatoes

A good tomato should feel heavy for its size and emit a sweet, earthy aroma near the stem. Seek out locally grown tomatoes at farmers’ markets and specialty markets. Opt for heirloom tomato varieties known for their juicy, flavorful flesh and range of captivating colors. Consider Early Girl tomatoes or Sungold cherry tomatoes to add visual appeal.

Preparing the Versatile Vinaigrette

The vinaigrette in this recipe serves a dual purpose by both macerating the red onion and dressing the salad. Here’s how to prepare it.

Ingredients:

● 2 tablespoons red vino vinegar

● 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

● 1 teaspoon honey

● 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Method:

● Whisk together the vinegar, mustard, and honey in a small bowl until the honey dissolves.

● Gradually whisk in the olive oil until well blended.
