Salad with pepper

2 servings

60 minutes

Pepper salad is a vibrant dish of European cuisine that combines the rich flavor of roasted sweet peppers, the juiciness of fresh tomatoes, and the spiciness of feta cheese. The history of such salads originates in Mediterranean regions where vegetables are roasted to enhance their sweetness and aroma. Roasted bell peppers acquire a light smoky note that perfectly complements the acidity of tomatoes and the creamy texture of feta. Olive oil highlights the natural flavor nuances, while fresh herbs like cilantro and parsley add freshness and aroma. This salad is great as a light appetizer or a side dish to meat dishes and is also perfect for a summer lunch. It is served chilled, making it refreshing in warm weather.
