Georgian-style vegetable salad with walnuts is a vibrant embodiment of Georgia's culinary traditions, where the freshness of vegetables harmoniously blends with aromatic spices and nutty texture. This salad, filled with rich flavors of tomatoes, cucumbers, and basil, is enhanced by the spiciness of red onion and green bell pepper. The dressing made from white wine vinegar and sunflower oil adds a light tanginess, highlighting the natural freshness of the ingredients. The main distinction of this dish is the walnuts that add richness and depth of flavor. Seasoned with ucho-suneli and Imeretian saffron, the salad acquires a characteristic Georgian aroma. This salad is perfect as a standalone dish or as a side to meat and fish dishes, filling the meal with notes of Georgian hospitality.
