All Recipes, / July 23, 2021

This Refreshing Spanish Tomato Salad, known in Spain as ¨Ensalada de Tomate¨, is packed with flavors, made with simple ingredients and comes together in just 10 minutes. Truly, the ultimate summer salad, yet it´s bold enough to enjoy all year round.

You can serve this salad as a tapas appetizer or even as a side dish, next to a Spanish omelette. Either way, the fresh flavors and the simplicity of this salad, promise to blow you away.

To make this salad, I used tomatoes off the vine, which are also known as better boy tomatoes. These are the tomatoes that are typically used to make this salad. However, you can use any tomatoes you like. I also used sherry vinegar to make the dressing, but once again, you can use any vinegar you like.

TIPS & TRICKS to Make this Recipe: The secret to this recipe, is to cut the slices of tomato, season them with salt & pepper and let them rest for 5 minutes in a single layer. This will help remove some of the water in the slices of tomato. That way when you add the dressing, the tomatoes can really absorb all the flavors.

Key Ingredients & Cookware I used in this Recipe:
EXTRA VIRGIN SPANISH OLIVE OIL
SHERRY VINEGAR
SPANISH SEA SALT
