I love America's Test Kitchen. I love everybody on the show. I also love all the recipes, and how they are prepared. I also love hearing Julia say ho ho ho when she is happy about food that looks good. She makes it so exciting to get to taste the new recipe, no matter what it is. I am so glad that I can watch America's Test Kitchen on my television, and on my telephone. I love you guys! Keep up the good work!!
My retired friend now has time to cook their recipes regularly and tells me how new and exciting certain dishes taste!
Don’t drain the tomatoes with the salt, leave the juice of all the vegetables mix with the olive oil and it will create a nice emulsion of flavour that you can dip your bread afterwards (papara) best part of the salad.
Always love this combination of vegetables in just about any dressing. Something my mom always had on the table in the summer time, we called it thunder and lightning, seriously. Brings back memories. This dish goes under many guises and names. It looks to me it's one of those universal recipes of making something out of what you have that's easy, nutritious and delicious. This variation looks yummy.
As a greek person, I'll say this is more or less spot on. I would personally substitute green peppers for some lettuce, but that's just personal preference. I can also say, we don't bother premixing the vinegar, salt and oregano. We just bring the salad to the table unseasoned and we season and mix it right before serving. As a kid I would always want to be the one who does the mixing and now my nieces like to do it :P
I've grown to love putting chunks of either wheat or barley paximadia in and letting it sit for about 10 minutes before eating. Soaks up the zoumi quite well
@@nikeaddict55 reminds me of "ntakos" from Crete
@@dogoku Exactly. A nice ntakos vibe
My favorite salad. It looks so delicious. You can't go wrong with "America's Test Kitchen".
We live on this salad in the summer. Warning: don’t make it with supermarket tomatoes, they don’t do it justice. Also we don’t drain the tomatoes. To each their own but the juice that accumulates at the bottom with some crusty bread is the best part. We called it the ζουμι
I'm with you on not draining tomatoes!!
Why would anyone drain the juice?? To me it's the best part of making the salad! You have to finish it up by dipping some warm bread into it
Yes…my xeni husband now always wants his psomi so he can dunk in the zoumi…lol!! And not sure why they called this “hearty” Greek salad when it’s actually VILLAGE Greek salad! But…all delicious nonetheless!! 😊🤌
@grksher ζουμι + ψομι = αγαπη. And my xeno wife has come to see the light on that topic too 😆
@@nxstng7325 I love it!! My husband is Jewish and before we married we quickly decided we’d be focusing on MY cultural cuisine…lol! 😊
Simple, elegant, beautiful. Thanks to both of you. Julia, I love your hair like that.
I made this last night because it was a really hot day, and it turned out really delicious. My boyfriend is vegan, so I used slabs of homemade vegan feta. I also used heirloom tomatoes from the farmers market. Even though I salted them for 30 mins in a colander, they still produced a lot of liquid in the bowl. Next time I'll try using a mess strainer instead, but I'll definitely be making this again real soon. Thanks once again, ATK!
Horiatiki means village style, and honestly, all Greek food is hearty (good thing)
Greek Salad...all time favorite salad!!
Definitely use Greek olive oil on this one. The difference is huge!
Yum! Here is my plate 🍽
I love Becky. Julia isn't at all bad either. Good work ladies!
Becky always makes great dishes
This looks so yummy
Becky rocks !!!
My Jersey tomatoes will be the star to this salad I will make tonight!! ❤️
Will be trying this within the week!
Doesn't most of the flavor in tomatos reside in the juices?
Yes. Adding this much salt everywhere and then also adding feta also makes it too salty.
Need to try looks delicious
That's great
Looks fantastic! Look forward to trying it.
That's s lovely fresh salad. Yum 😋
Going to try this for sure, love yours! Thank you for sharing… I’m subscribed! 😁
Never have to have an iceberg tomato and cheddar salad again
Hello ATK
Salutations from California
Delicious
Made this today & was fantastic!
Can you come up with a recipe for creamed spinach?
it’s a sin to drain the tomatoes and must be outlawed 🤣
Agreed. Plus with this much salt added everywhere adding the feta just makes it too salty.
Sorry, capers are not classic here...I've had this salad all my life and we never used capers...I guess you could for variation, but definitely not classic!
Hello Feddah, Hello Fahduh, here I am at Camp Granada
VasiLi's@ in Santa Cruz Ca, Has GreAtS Very GarLicky& Lemon Forwards, There Greek 🍋 Lemon 🍋 Baked Potato Wedges....Were to Live !! FOr Lol.
why specifically ice water, diffusion is slower in ice water
A red onion doesn't have that much sulfur so you can skip this step entirely like the Hellenic people do.
👍👍
💚💙💜
Looks awesome!. I would change the kalamatas to a mix of olives, add marinated mushrooms, and add some chick peas for protein.
Please don't. That's not a horiatiki salad then.
The original recipe is just a base. You can change recipes to your own taste...it's allowed. Really...it is..try it so.e time.
@@jaa4742 then call it something else.
Proofread.
I have a high school crush on every female on ATK !!!
Don't get me wrong, I love Julia and her wisdom.. but man sometimes she needs to be quiet for 2 minutes
I’d use basil at the End,-and add avocado
Ew! Why? That's not an authentic "Greek" salad then.
χωριάτικη σαλάτα = Peasant Salad. Lose the green peppers, vinegar, black pepper, and capers. I’ve never seen capers in a Greek Salad, what you showed was American-ized Greek Salad, not what you’d find in the average restaurant in Greece.
Agreed, also the cucumber and pepper pieces are deffo too chunky and the feta isn’t chunky enough 😅
nothing is static; even in Greece cooks/chefs introduce new twists to old dishes. Athens is full of Carrefours, McDonalds, and every imaginable cuisine under the sun.
@@pwp8737 experimenting doesn’t mean that recipes to traditional dishes change too though
I'm half greek and my grandmother used to make greek food all the time when I was growing up. Nothing irks me more than someone saying greek salad and it's nothing like a traditional greek salad lol
Bret F: Correct. Also, not so many olives!
I'd leave out the pepper.
I I order a village salad in a Greek deli. $9.99 for a bowl.
Meanwhile, most of these ingredients are FREE from your own garden 🌱
@@sunset6010 While you and I are fortunate to have gardens, many people don’t, especially apartment dwellers.
Make your own for cheaper.
Original Greek Salad, NEVER do the salads with the cucumber skin on
Good but I would cut up the olives, getting a whole one is just too much salt at once IMHO.
".. the good stuff... not the pre-crumbled stuff..." Sage advice. But why would anyone get the pre-crumbled stuff, and not the "good stuff" to begin with for *any* dish? Lol.
Because they're lazy, don't know any better, or just believe in the marketing.
@@myrdraal2001 There's also accessibility problems. Not many places carry imported feta. finding a PDO label is extremely difficult unless you go to a specialty cheese shop and are prepared to get over-charged
@@nikeaddict55 if it isn't from Hellas then it isn't real feta and actually made with other milk(s) that it shouldn't be.
@@myrdraal2001 I'm well aware mate. I'm pointing out why people would use American "feta"
@@nikeaddict55 and I'm pointing out that it isn't from Hellas it isn't feta.
most of these ingredients are FREE from your own garden 🌱
I'm surprised that an American actually said χωριάτικη σαλάτα (village salad) correctly. You definitely don't need to drain and salt the tomatoes. As a matter of fact just make the entire salad in one bowl and save yourself the dishwashing. You're wasting a lot of the pepper cutting up the bell pepper that way. A red onion doesn't have the sulfuric punch of a white so you don't need to soak it at all. Don't make the dressing on the side. Just add it to the top of everything. Your olives look old and mushy. They don't need to be pitted. Why waste yet another serving dish? Just serve it in the bowl. With all of the salt you've added adding this feta on top will just make it too salty, unless your feta is the nasty imitation domestic feta not made in Hellas. The juice from the salad is delicious and if not eaten with a crusty piece of bread dunked right in to the dressing can be drunk as is.
America test kitchen can't cook and they always go with the highest equipment.
Thank you for finally showing something remotely healthy for once...eating all your recipes will turn me into a land whale
No gyro meat?
Why? They're not making a gyro. They're making a salad.
Nope. It’s not traditional.
