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.

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.

This salad is a great choice for a healthy and delicious meal. It's packed with nutrients and the dressing is made with olive oil, which is a heart-healthy fat. I like to make this salad for lunch or dinner.

The flavors in this salad are amazing! The combination of sweet tomatoes, tangy onions, and herbs is so refreshing. I love the addition of the sesame seeds and the dressing is so flavorful. This is definitely a new favorite salad recipe.

My kids loved this salad! They especially liked the sweet and tangy dressing. I even caught my son sneaking back to the fridge for seconds. This is definitely a recipe that I'll be making again and again.

This salad is very affordable to make, especially if you use seasonal produce. I like to buy tomatoes when they're on sale and then freeze them so I can use them in this salad all year long.

I'm always short on time during the week so I appreciate that this salad is so quick and easy to make. I usually have all of the ingredients on hand so I can throw it together in just a few minutes.

I love spicy food so I added a bit of chili pepper to this salad. It gave it a nice kick without being too overpowering. The dressing is also really good. I could see myself using it on other salads as well.

I'm always looking for new salad recipes and this one didn't disappoint. The combination of tomatoes, onions, and herbs is so refreshing. I used a mix of cherry tomatoes and Roma tomatoes and it was delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.

This salad was a hit at my last potluck! The flavors were amazing and it was so easy to make. I used cherry tomatoes and they worked perfectly. I also added some chopped cucumber for extra crunch. Will definitely be making this again!
