I always look forward to tomatoes in summer and even though they taste delicious cooked in sugo and the like, I don't think you can beat raw tomatoes. Of course, you can serve fresh tomatoes simply with olive oil and salt. However, I'd like to share with you a slightly more interesting take on a tomato salad. In this recipe, the sweetness of the tomatoes is complemented by a salty, sour vinaigrette made from olives, capers and plenty of lemon. Just heavenly!
