Final Notes for the Greek Tomato Feta Salad Recipe
➡️ Traditional Greek salads are made from a variety of vegetables, often tomatoes, feta cheese, and olives. This Greek tomato salad recipe takes the traditional salad to the next level with fresh tomatoes, creamy feta cheese, and fragrant herbs. It’s great as a side dish or as a main dish when served on scorching summer days, which are common in this Balkan country.
- Greek tomatoes are very sweet due to the climate of this Mediterranean country, so I recommend using, as much as possible, very ripe tomatoes to accurately reproduce the authentic taste of the tomato feta salad
- Greek cuisine is pretty rustic, so you don’t need to chop tomatoes and onions finely but rather coarsely
- Greeks like to sour the feta and tomato salad with white wine vinegar or even with fresh lemon juice, use an amount that fits your personal taste – add first a spoon of vinegar or lemon juice, mix and taste, then add more as needed
- Greek olive oil is recommended for this recipe to reproduce better the authentic taste of this tomato salad
- use a dryer feta cheese type that enables you to grate it coarsely or break it by hand into smaller pieces, other types of brine cheese can be used if you don’t have feta at hand
- serve the tomato feta salad immediately as you make it because ripe tomatoes eliminate a lot of juice and the salad can become runny very quickly
