Tips
- Buy the feta in a big block, in brine: it has much more flavour than the dry, crumbled kind.
- The tomatoes and cucumber should be cool but not fridge-cold; they taste less flavourful when chilled.
- Use plenty of good olive oil: it's one of the main flavours of this dish, not just a garnish.
