Salad with onions and olives
4 servings
30 minutes
Onion and olive salad is a simple yet elegant dish from Bulgaria. It embodies the traditions of Mediterranean cuisine, where minimalism meets rich flavors. The onion, with its sharp spiciness, softens under the influence of vinegar and oil, acquiring a delicate tang and velvety texture. Olives add depth of flavor with their salty and slightly bitter notes, perfectly complementing the onion base. This salad is great as a standalone dish with a glass of white wine or as a side to meat or fish. Its freshness and pleasant sharpness make it an ideal addition to summer gatherings, while its simplicity allows for enjoyment without hassle.
