Hello from Greece! For those who are wondering, Greek salad doesnt contain lettuce. Also, we dont use netheir mustard nor thyme in the dressing. But its always good to see your videos and trying your recipes. Thank you!

[@janetholmes6659]

Hello to Greece. Would you kindly please tell me how authentic Greek dressing is made. I had some today at a Greek restaurant and I did not taste any vinegar.

[@user-gu6pk1ff5y]

@@janetholmes6659 Good morning! In Greek salad, anyone can put whatever he wants. The dressing in restaurant, normally is optional. Although, we prefer a combination of olive oil, salt , oregano and some people put vinegar too. Vinegar is something extra that elevates the plate, but not all people like it. So, its up to you. Hope i helped :)

[@janetholmes6659]

@@user-gu6pk1ff5y Yes you did. Thanks. Does it matter what brand of olive oil to use?

[@user-gu6pk1ff5y]

@@janetholmes6659 Nah. But its better taste to choose virgin olive oil. But not too much. Because it has a full flavour.

[@panpani5079]

I recommend adding feta cheese after tossing the salad with dressing. That will keep the fresh taste of cheese instead of it being soaked in oil. But it depends what you like.

[@Sonicxis4ever]

I discovered this on another person’s KZbin channel and I agree with you. I actually add the dressing last! It tastes better that way for me

[@raygarcia9543o5]

Wonderful TiP ❤️😅👀👌

I do this too. I also just hate seeing nice chunks of feta get mixed up and semi-liquify inside the dressing

[@austindriggs]

Dressing 3:24: 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil 1/2 lemon zest 1 tsp fresh thyme 2 tbsp fresh oregano 2 tbsp red wine vinegar 2 tbsp honey mustard 1/2 lemon juice (2tbsp) 1/2 tsp salt This needs the olives and feta to round out it's flavor.

You are my hero! Made greek salad twice already using your recipe and it’s a hit. I have to make it 2x a week now😊. Thank you for sharing your recipe, chef! I enjoy your cool and friendly personality! All the best!

I literally opened my mouth when you took that bite. I love Greek salad 🥗. I’ve never had that dressing. Looks delightful and accomplishable for me. Thank you.

I bought salads from Panera Bread yesterday, got home and they were HORRABBLE, the greens were totally old and wilted I threw it in the garbage. Sooooooooo I found the recipe and made my own today and it came out so delicious, thank you for sharing, I love your cooking video's. 🥰

[@cher128bx]

Just finished making and in the process of eating this Greek Salad. In a word, "Yum!" Thanks for sharing it with us.

[@roberthanlen6036]

Seriously - the best part of this was seeing you adjust the flavours in the dressing. Too many online chefs taste and simply accept. Great recipe. I'm adjusting it to make cold tartlets as finger food for a party.

[@V.Jones1]

My thoughts too lol

[@gloriavalles910]

All of your ingredients blend in well to make your greek salad so delicious!

I made this salad and dressing a few weeks ago, with my seared lamb chops...It was the best fresh salad ever...I always buy it from the local carryouts, but never made Greek salad on my own...This was the absolute best salad and dressing I ever made...2 thumbs up and 10 stars for this

[@sammysworld5485]

I just luv ur cooking channel. This was such a easy to follow recipe. I never seemed to get this salad right. Now it’s perfect! The dressing came out great despite not adding the honey mustard. TY!

[@barbryll8596]

Probably one of the most delectable salads! I love the strong flavours.....it's especially nice to make when you have tomatoes and cucumbers fresh from your garden yumm!

[@TheNewMediaoftheDawn]

Greek salad is truly fantastic. Yes bread and salad seems like real old fashioned neighbourhood Greeks, cheers🎉

[@oppongn]

Your excitement about this salad is enough of an inventive to give this recipie a try! Thank you!

Recipes for Greek salad vary so much from village to village let alone the islands . This is a nicely balanced mix of ingredients and I like the dressing. I am a bit of an oregano 🌿 freak so I use extra dried as well as the fresh.

[@smileytow1925]

I made this for a family party! Everyone enjoyed it! My husband who normally would not eat something like this said he didn’t know I made it and that he had some and liked it! ❤️💕 thank you for sharing!

Thank you for your videos and cooking channel. I made the Greek Salad recipe and when I ate it I felt better than I have in months. I’ve been going through a tough pregnancy and lost 25 lbs.

Thank you for the recipe. I can't wait to send this video to my friends who don't believe me when I tell them that a true Greek Salad contains no lettuce! True Greek Salads are hard to find in restaurants in the USA. Can't wait to make this!

[@KaraCarsafliGelin]

Yes,during winter months when cucumbers were not avalible (or too expensive to buy) substituted with lettuce.

[@jennyagelo3287]

I agree. I'm originally from the Greek mountains and we never make our salads with lettuce. Only tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, oil salt and oregano, feta cheese and olives are optional for us. Here in the USA they make them so different

[@giabrehm4303]

It is true, in many contries they use lettuce and that is wrong

[@giabrehm4303]

@@jennyagelo3287I am agree

[@dusk5956]

That is totally fine with me! It taste so much better without the lettuce. The size and texture of the lettuce throws it off. Not Greek, but the food has grown to be one of my favorites!

[@ArthurineJavier]

I made this salad tonight and it turned out delicious!! My partner is now a big fun of salads and loved it, she even repeated. Thank you so much for sharing your dishes and explaining so easy to understand. Not the first recipe I have made with your videos!

I'm from Bulgaria and we eat something called 'Shopska Salad'. It's basically Greek salad but instead of Feta cheese, we use another cheese that is really similar called 'Sirene' and it's delicious. In my family, we don't put garnish and oregano, etc. we just use tomatoes, cucumber, onion, sirene, olive oil, and vinegar. (I prefer mine without onion, but that's just my opinion. Thanks for this awesome video. I think I'm going to make some right now with olives..
