Author Notes
This came from the last farm stand tomatoes we are getting here in Maryland now. I wish I had thought of this technique earlier in the year - it made the most flavorful tomato salad with so little effort! Salting the salad all together forces the veggies to release their beautiful juice, soften, and meld some flavors together. The vinaigrette doesn't even need seasoning at this point. Just crack some fresh pepper at the end. —meganvt01
