I searched extensively for this but never found one quite like this. My Italian mother in law made this simple, simple salad that is sooo delicious. It's key to let it sit for awhile at room temperature. This is easily multiplied. I put 30 minute cooking time which is the minimum sitting time but can be made ahead. Just please don't refrigerate - it makes the texture of the tomatoes funky.
Ingredients:
1 yellow onion, peeled, trimmed & cut into large chunks
1 lb tomato, the best you can find, trimmed & cut into large chunks
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Combine everything in a bowl.
2. Let sit for at least 1/2hour to let the juices from the tomato exude & mingle with the olive oil.
3. Enjoy. The juice is good for dipping crusty bread into.
