- It's easy to understand how this class combination of tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, peppers, olives, feta and olive oil make for one of the most iconic dishes in the world. There's a secret to a good Greek salad: Make it in season, when tomatoes are ripest, and use good quality sheep's milk or sheep and goat's milk feta.
Ingredients:
1 cup cherry tomatoes
1 cup teardrop tomatoes
1 cup yellow teardrops
2 perfect red tomatoes
2 black tomatoes
1 medium red onion halved and cut into 1/8-in/3-mm slices
1 green pepper seeded and cut into rings or crescents
4 to 6 pepperoncini
1 large cucumber peeled and cut into 1/8-in/3-mm-thick rounds
8 to 12 Kalamata olives in brine rinsed and drained
Coarse salt or sea salt
1/3 cup/80 ml extra-virgin Greek olive oil
5 oz/140 g Greek feta cut into 1 square piece
2 tsp fresh oregano leaves or 1/2 tsp dried Greek oregano

I made this last night and we really enjoyed it. It’s definitely a summertime recipe because it wouldn’t be as good without the garden fresh vegetables. It’s also not a fussy recipe. Thank you!
Limited experience with Greek wines, don't care much for them but I hugely enjoy a Retsina with a Greek salad!

I have had this village salad many time in Greece. But, I do like it with fresh lemon juice over the top. The Greeks do not use lettuce in their salad. And, I like anchovies
We usually don't add acid because the olives, feta and sometime use of capers and pepperoncini provide enough acidity. But if you like lemon juice, go for it!
@@DianeKochilas I toured Greece a few years ago, five islands and the mainland from Athens to the Bulgarian border. I had the village salad more then once and many times they did squeeze fresh lemon juice onto the salad and in a few instances did not use olive oil.
Love this!
Thank you!
I love this salad. Have you ever thought of putting your cooking school on DAD'S for those of us who cannot afford to go to Greece. I know I would buy them.😊
Sorry it's DVD.
It wouldn't be the same.
That looks good diane and good for me right?
Greek salad is village food now know thanks

No vinegar?
I had the same thoughts. Or at least some fresh lemon juice
Never! Olives and feta provide enough acidity, so do capers and pepperoncini, which are also sometimes added.
Never! Olives and feta are quite acidic.
Where are the stuffed grape leaves 😔. I love Greek cuisine and the culture; in fact, many folks ask me if I am Greek.
That's exactly what I was thinking I add lemon or red wine vinegar
