01 -

It comes together in literally ten minutes but tastes like something you waited all day for
The way the vinegar pulls out the tomatoes juices creates its own sauce, nothing wasted

02 -

Soaking the onion slices in cold water for ten minutes takes away that harsh raw bite that can linger
This salad tastes best at room temperature, not cold from the refrigerator

03 -

Let the tomatoes come to room temperature before slicing for the best flavor and texture
