Greek salad with fetaxa is one of the options for preparing the famous "choriatic salad", which is served in almost all restaurants in the world. The reason for the popularity is simple: affordable ingredients, quick preparation and great taste of the finished dish, which almost everyone likes. By the way, initially there were no tomatoes in the salad, because in Greece they appeared only in the 20s of the 19th century. That is, until that time, local chefs combined peppers, onions, cucumbers, olives and feta with olive oil in one bowl. Agree, tomatoes have made significant, very pleasant changes in the taste of the dish! Nowadays, Greek salad is unthinkable without them, as well as without feta cheese, feta or fetaxa (a more plastic variety of feta). Disputes about whether to add onions and herbs to the dish do not make sense, because this is certainly a matter of taste!
