Greek Salad

Let's cook

1. 1

   No lettuce

   A traditional horiatiki contains no leaves at all. Lettuce dilutes it and goes limp in the dressing.

2. 2

   Cut everything chunky

   Cut the vegetables into large, rustic pieces. Fine dicing turns this into a salsa.

3. 3

   Salt the tomatoes first

   Salt the tomato wedges and leave 10 minutes. They release juice that becomes part of the dressing.

   💡

   That tomato juice mixing with the olive oil is the actual dressing. Do not drain it away.

4. 4

   Feta goes on whole

   Place the feta on top as a single slab rather than crumbling it, then drizzle with oil and dust with oregano.

5. 5

   Dress at the table

   Add the olive oil, vinegar, and pepper just before serving and toss lightly, leaving the feta on top.
