The real Horiatiki: what makes a true Greek salad

Original: Outside Greece, what passes for Greek salad is often a pale imitation. Inside Greece, the real Horiatiki (village salad)

Discussion centres on the difference between authentic Horiatiki, the Greek village salad, and the watered-down versions served abroad. Inside Greece, the salad arrives as a generous mound of ripe tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, olives, feta and olive oil, without lettuce or vinegar, while restaurants outside the country often substitute pale imitations with the wrong ingredients.

Why now: Food lovers are debating culinary authenticity and how a national dish is altered abroad
