Feta Cheese Salad
Description
The salad is quick and easy to prepare. Cheese salads with feta are always delicious, but you need to consider the characteristics of the cheese itself. Feta cheese is very salty, so it's better to reduce the amount of added salt when preparing the salad. Feta is very soft, so it should be placed directly onto the finished salad. The salad is ready to serve.

Step 1
1. Cut the fresh tomato into small cubes. To prepare the salad, choose a firm and ripe tomato. A too soft or overripe tomato will turn into mush when chopped. It's better to select a high-quality vegetable.

3. Rinse the marinated chanterelles under running water. Let them drain and add the mushrooms to the salad. Instead of chanterelles, you can use marinated button mushrooms or other small-sized mushrooms. Mushrooms that are too large will stand out and disrupt the overall salad.

4. Chop the available herbs. I used only parsley, but you can use a variety of herbs to your taste.

5. Mix the vegetables in the salad. Prepare the dressing. Combine vegetable oil, balsamic cream, and a little sugar. Use the resulting dressing to dress the salad and mix well. I didn't add any salt at all.

6. Place the salad onto a serving plate. Top the salad with sliced feta cheese. Garnish the salad with a sprig of parsley and serve. I did not add salt to the salad, as the saltiness of the cheese was enough for me, but you can always season individual portions with salt to taste.
