This tomato and feta salad comes together in minutes: no need to make a separate dressing. Simply toss with some good extra virgin olive oil, loads of fresh herbs, and a few easy seasonings and you’re good to go. Serve with nice bread to take advantage of the tomatoes’ fresh juices, which release and combine with all the aromatics in a very fortuitous way.

Ingredients

  • 6 to 7 medium ripe tomatoes, (sliced into wedges (on-the-vine tomatoes or heirloom tomatoes preferred))
  • 1 medium red onion, (halved, then thinly sliced)
  • 3 garlic cloves, (minced)
  • 1 packed cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
  • 1 packed cup chopped fresh dill
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons sumac
  • Kosher salt
  • Black pepper

  • 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • Feta cheese, (to your liking)
