A nice variation of the classic Tomato and Cucumber Salad. This one adds a bit of cumin for an interesting flavor touch. You can also substitute balsamic vinegar for the white vinegar for a nice variation. (The total amount of diced tomatoes should be around 4 cups - it wouldn't fit in the ingredients line). Ingredients:
1/3 cup olive oil |
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice |
1 tablespoon white vinegar |
1 1/4 teaspoons salt |
1 teaspoon cumin |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
3 3/4 lbs plum tomatoes, cut into 1/3-inch dice (or vine-ripened) |
1 lb seedless cucumber, cut into 1/3-inch dice (2 1/2 cups) |
3/4 cup fresh curly-leaf parsley, finely chopped |
1/4 cup sweet onion, finely chopped, such as maui, vidalia, walla walla |
Directions:
1. Whisk together oil, lemon juice, vinegar, salt, cumin, and pepper in a medium bowl.
2. Add tomatoes, cucumber, parsley, and onion and stir to combine.
3. Let stand at room temperature 10 minutes before serving.
