Cucumber Tomato Salad
Description
Cucumber Tomato Salad is built from crunchy mini cucumber slices, tangy red onion, and juicy heirloom tomato chunks, all enhanced by fresh dill and parsley for herbaceous notes. Olive oil and red wine vinegar bind the ingredients together, adding smoothness and acidity. Seasoned with kosher salt and black pepper, the salad's flavors deepen when it sits for at least an hour before serving.
The salad delivers a vibrant mix of textures: crisp cucumber, tender tomato, and slight onion bite. The fresh herbs offer a brightness that complements the natural sweetness of the vegetables. After tossing, resting allows the vegetables to marinate slightly, creating a unified flavor profile.
This salad suits casual meals or can accompany grilled proteins and sandwiches. Its lightness and freshness make it a good choice for summer dining or whenever a simple vegetable side is preferred.
