"Horiatiki," often known as Greek Village Salad
"Horiatiki," often known as Greek Village Salad, is a quintessential Mediterranean dish celebrated for its fresh, vibrant flavors and simple preparation. This rustic salad foregoes lettuce, instead focusing on the quality of its sun-drenched ingredients. Typically, it features ripe, juicy tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, thinly sliced red onion, potent Kalamata olives, and generous slabs of creamy, briny feta cheese. A simple dressing of extra virgin olive oil, a splash of red wine vinegar (optional, as the tomatoes and feta provide enough acidity for some), and a sprinkle of dried oregano brings all the elements together, creating a refreshing and satisfying salad that perfectly encapsulates the essence of Greek cuisine.
