Cucumber Salad with Feta and Shiso

8 ounces of feta cheese in 1/4 inch cubes

1/4 cup of red onion, sliced extremely thin
1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon of rice vinegar
Salt and pepper

 

••••••••

First, take the sliced onion and soak in ice water because this takes off some of the edge. Soak for 20 minutes then drain well.

Take 3 of the shiso leaves and chop fi nely. Reserve the other 2 whole leaves.

In a bowl, mix the feta, cucumbers, chopped shiso, and onion. Put 2 of the whole shiso leaves on 2 plates and put the salad mixture on top.

Make a vinaigrette out of the vinegar, olive oil salt and pepper. Whisk and pour over the salad at the last possible moment before eating.

Serves 2.
