Greek salad

Rare card · No. 66596

Greek salad, choriatiki or Horiatiki (Greek: χωριάτικη σαλάτα or θερινή σαλάτα) is a salad in Greek cuisine generally made with pieces of tomatoes, cucumbers, onion, feta cheese, and olives (typically Kalamata olives) and dressed with salt, Greek oregano, and olive oil. Common additions include lemon juice, green bell pepper, caper berries (especially on the Cyclades islands), and mint or parsley for decoration (mainly in Northern Greece). Greek salad is often imagined as a farmer's breakfast or lunch, as its ingredients resemble those that a Greek farmer might have on hand.
