Description
Some of my favorite recipes are those that rely on the little things. Take this version of Greek salad. First, you choose your ingredients carefully-for instance, ripe tomatoes (taut-skinned and unblemished), of course, but also perfect cucumbers (sweet, crisp ones with character; none that are watery or full of big old seeds). Then, have a bit of fun cutting them: using a very sharp knife (this will spare you mushy, ragged-edged tomatoes), cut them into different shapes of similar size, some with sharp angles. These and a few other small details-briefly chilling the tomatoes and cucumbers and quick-pickling the onions-turn a familiar collection of ingredients into a really special salad.
