Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Tomatoes 2 (300g)
  • Onion 100g

Seasonings

  • [A] Olive Oil 2 tbsp
  • [A] Hi-Me 5 dashes
  • [A] Black Pepper to taste
  • [A] Salt 1/3 tsp
  • [A] Rice Vinegar 1 tbsp
  • Parmesan Cheese to taste
  • Dried Parsley to taste

Steps

  1. Thinly slice 100g onion perpendicular to the grain.
  2. Soak the sliced onion in water for about 10 to 15 minutes. 【Pro Tip!】 Thoroughly soaking it in water to remove the pungency makes the onion suitable for the dressing.
  3. Cut the flat part off 2 tomatoes (300g), remove the stems, and cut into rough wedges.
  4. Arrange the sliced tomatoes on a plate and chill thoroughly in the refrigerator. 【Pro Tip!】 Chilling them while you prepare the dressing will result in a more delicious dish.
  5. Squeeze the water out of the soaked onion firmly. 【Pro Tip!】 It's important to squeeze out the water thoroughly, as lingering moisture will dilute the dressing's flavor.
  6. In a bowl, combine MSG(Ajinomoto) Hi-Me 5 dashes, salt 1/3 tsp, black pepper to taste, rice vinegar 1 tbsp, and olive oil 2 tbsp, then mix well to create the onion dressing. 【Pro Tip!】 By fully utilizing the umami of Hi-Me, you can make this salad, which lacks animal-based umami, exceptionally delicious.
  7. Generously pour the onion dressing over the chilled tomatoes.
  8. Sprinkle generously with Parmesan cheese to taste and scatter with dried parsley to taste to finish. 【Pro Tip!】 Applying a generous amount of Parmesan cheese will significantly enhance the flavor.
