Albanian Tomato Cucumber Salad
This traditional salad is served throughout Albania.
It is often served as first course. Typically this salad has equal proportions
of tomato and cucumber. The rest of the ingredients are stictly added based on
personal preference. I got this recipe from some missionaries that have lived
in Albania for a long time. They made a cookbook with other missionaries called
"From bugs to beans."
