Tomato salad
============ 2024-10-25
Inspired directly from: Salade de tomates facile MAIS originale par JP Vigato
Comment: The chef peels his tomatoes, me not, I think that the skin, in a salad, is part of the tomato. Don't forget to remove the hard part of the tomato where the stem was attached. For herbs, use what you have, even none gives an excellent result.
