Tomato, Cucumber, and Onion Salad
When it comes to refreshing and vibrant dishes that perfectly capture the essence of summer, few can rival the classic Tomato, Cucumber, and Onion Salad. This salad is a celebration of fresh, garden-picked produce, each component contributing its unique flavor and texture to create a harmonious and satisfying dish.
Imagine the juiciness of ripe tomatoes, the crispness of cool cucumbers, and the sharp bite of red onions coming together in a simple yet delightful salad. This recipe is designed to highlight the natural flavors of these ingredients while adding a tangy, slightly sweet dressing that enhances their freshness.
The dressing for this salad is a carefully balanced blend of seasoned rice vinegar, olive oil, and Lawry’s Seasoned Salt. The rice vinegar adds a pleasant tanginess, complementing the sweetness of the tomatoes and the freshness of the cucumbers. Olive oil contributes a rich, smooth texture that ties the ingredients together, while Lawry’s Seasoned Salt imparts a savory depth of flavor that brings out the best in each vegetable.
Ingredients:
2 large cucumbers, sliced.
6 medium tomatoes, cut into wedges.
½ cup seasoned rice vinegar.
⅓ cup olive oil.
1 tablespoon Lawry’s Seasoned Salt.
½ red onion, thinly sliced.
Instructions:
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the sliced cucumbers, tomato wedges, and red onion.
Step 2
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the seasoned rice vinegar, olive oil, and Lawry’s Seasoned Salt.
Step 3
Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss gently to coat.
Step 4
For the best flavor, let the salad marinate for at least 30 minutes before serving. However, you can serve it immediately if needed.
Notes:
Cucumber Tip: If using garden cucumbers with a thick, waxy peel, peel them before slicing. English or Persian cucumbers usually don’t need peeling.
Serving Suggestion: Tomatoes taste best at room temperature. If the salad has been refrigerated, let it sit out for about 20 minutes before serving to bring it to room temperature.
