Wait around 10 to 15 minutes before serving the salad so the flavors can combine. The veggies’ natural juices will begin to seep out during this resting period, lightly dressing the salad.
6th Step
After the salad has rested, give it a quick toss to redistribute the ingredients and reawaken the flavors. Check the seasoning of the salad and make any necessary changes. You may adjust the seasoning to taste by adding additional salt, pepper, or vinegar.
7th Step
Prepare a serving dish or individual plates for the Tomato, Cucumber, and Onion Salad. Sprinkle with a few more basil leaves for aesthetic value.
8th Step
You can serve the salad at room temperature, or you can chill it in the fridge for a few minutes. The salad is at its most refreshing when served at room temperature
