Hints, Tips, and Tricks

Use this salad to accompany grilled steak, an omelet, a toast with smoked salmon, a sandwich… or what you want.
This salad should be made with good quality tomatoes. Do not use the ones that taste like styrofoam.
I usually add salt to the tomatoes before dressing them to make them better acquire the taste of salt.
You can vary the amount of garlic to taste, and the quantities of oil and vinegar. The amounts in the recipe are the ones I normally use.
You can add some chopped green onions, both the white and green part. It is also good with red onion.
You can add other spices to the dressing, like some black pepper or a little of ground cumin.
Why not a hot twist? Add a pinch of chili powder or a red chili peppers, seeded and finely chopped.
