"Flash salt" your tomatoes, as blogger nami-nami does in this recipe, for added flavor and less juice in your salad. She took a tip from chef Jamie Oliver, in his book Jamie at Home, and sprinkled tomatoes and red onion slices with sea salt and allowed them to season and drain for 15 minutes. Another unique touch to this salad is flowering oregano, which is not only visually beautiful but offers an even more vibrant taste as it reaches the flowering point.
There's no better time than August to play with tomatoes, and Kitchen Daily has a world of tomato recipes to share.
