1. Wash and dry tomatoes, do not peel.
2. Slice each in half, and then, with the flat sides on a wooden board, slice in the length and then across again - into small chunks.
3. Slice and chop the onion in the same way.
4. Mix in a salad bowl.
5. Add the three flavourings and mix well.
6. Cover with plastic wrap and leave to stand at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
7. Eat as is - to get that wonderful flavour of sunripened tomatoes and soft, sweet onion!
8. Or you can drizzle over some vinaigrette which is not acidic. (That will spoil the fresh, simple, down-home tastes).
