ASIAN TOMATO SALAD



Asian Tomato Salad image

This recipe has been slightly tweaked from one by Katsuyo Kobayashi, Japan's favourite TV cooking show host and an Iron Chef winner. It is so easy to make, but to ensure plenty of flavour, use the best quality tomatoes you can get. If possible, make it ahead and refrigerate for at least an hour to let the flavours blend. This doesn't seem to keep well, so eat it the day you make it.

Categories     Onions

Time 5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 -4 ripe tomatoes
1/4 medium white onion
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 -3 teaspoon honey (optional, I use 1 or none)
1 pinch salt, be generous

Steps:

  • You can skip this step if you have very thin skinned tomatoes. Insert a fork into the caps of the tomatoes and plunge tomatoes in boiling water for 5-6 seconds, then immediately run cold water over them, and remove the skin.
  • Core the tomatoes and slice them into thin wedges.
  • Chop the onion finely.
  • Make the dressing by combining the vinegar and honey.
  • Arrange tomatoes on a plate, sprinkle with chopped onion, sprinkle with salt and drizzle over dressing.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the taste of your salad. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and have a slight give when you gently squeeze them.
  • Use a variety of colors and shapes of tomatoes: This will add visual interest to your salad and make it more appealing to eat. Cherry tomatoes, grape tomatoes, and heirloom tomatoes are all great choices.
  • Slice the tomatoes thinly: This will help them to absorb the dressing more easily and also make them easier to eat.
  • Don't overdress the salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way. You want the flavors of the tomatoes to shine through.
  • Serve the salad immediately: Tomato salad is best enjoyed fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours before serving.
