A refreshing and vibrant salad featuring fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, and a zesty dressing.
Slice the tomatoes into thin rounds and arrange them around the edge of a serving platter.
Use a sharp knife to ensure clean slices and preserve the tomato's juices.
Cut the cucumbers into thin slices and place them in the center of the platter.
For a decorative touch, use a fork to score the cucumber skin before slicing.
Thinly slice the red onion and sprinkle it over the tomatoes and cucumbers.
Soak the onion slices in cold water for a few minutes to reduce their sharpness.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, white vinegar, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Pour the dressing evenly over the salad.
Drizzle the dressing slowly to ensure even coverage.
Sprinkle the parsley and mint leaves over the salad.
Tear the herbs by hand to release their natural oils and enhance their aroma.
Top the salad with black olives and serve immediately.
Chill the salad for 15 minutes before serving for a refreshing taste.
