Tomato and Avocado Salad

This salad is the ultimate expression of Mediterranean freshness. The combination of the juicy acidity of tomato with the buttery texture of avocado creates a simple dish, yet one that is highly nutritious thanks to its heart-healthy fats. To highlight the sweetness of the tomato and the umami flavor of the avocado without adding sodium, we will use Bonsalt 0%.

Professional Step-by-Step Preparation

1. Tomato preparation: Wash the tomatoes well and cut them into wedges or thick slices. It is important that they are at room temperature so they release all their aroma.

2. Avocado cutting: Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Cut it into slices or cubes about the same size as the tomato pieces.

3. Onion preparation: Cut the red onion into very thin slivers. If you want a milder flavor, you can leave it in very cold water for 5 minutes before adding it.

4. Assembly: On a flat platter, alternate the tomato and avocado pieces. Arrange the red onion on top in a harmonious way.

5. Technical dressing: In a small bowl, emulsify the olive oil with the lime juice. Add a generous amount of Bonsalt 0% and black pepper. Since it contains no sodium, the potassium in Bonsalt perfectly complements the mineral profile of avocado.

6. Final touch: Dress the salad with the dressing and sprinkle with the chopped fresh cilantro or parsley just before serving to prevent it from oxidizing.
