Place celery and red onion in a bowl, and add lemon juice, sugar and ¼ teaspoon of salt. Toss and leave to soften for 5 to 10 minutes while you prepare the rest of the salad.
To make the dressing, combine the soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, hot sauce, garlic, celery salt and olive oil in a bowl and stir to combine.
Tip the celery and red onions into a colander and allow to drain. Squeeze out any excess liquid.
Place the tomatoes in a large bowl and add the celery and onion. Add the dressing, along with the black pepper; stir gently to combine. Taste and season with more salt, if needed. To serve, top with parsley.
And try this: Make your favorite bloody mix and poach skinless, boneless chicken thighs in the mixture. Serve over pilaf or noodles....
Horseradish? Best part of a Bloody Mary to me
Made it this morning and couldn't stop tasting it. Will try to save some to mix with pasta.
I added tamari-seared tofu 'croutons' for some protein--so good!!!!
To exclude horseradish and describe this using Bloody Mary is deeply upsetting
Just my thought on the Worcestershire — even 1 tbsp is a lot as it is a complex and highly seasoned sauce. Try adding it one teaspoon at a time and taste till it’s to your liking.
I mixed our favorite bloody mary mix with a little olive oil for the dressing - has most of those dressing ingredients in it and so simple -
Made with halved cherry tomatoes. This recipe is a keeper!
Annie’s makes a delicious vegan Worcestershire sauce. Should be on the shelf right next to the regular one.
We have a son with fish allergies and have been able to find small batch, high quality, Worcestershire sauce without anchovies.
Shocking as it may seem, not everyone drinks alcohol.
Don’t forget a shot of vodka! :-)
I added grilled shrimp and feta and served on top of farro. Delicious!
This is excellent. I love a heavily flavored bloody mary, so I made a few additions to achieve the strong flavor I was after. First, a bit of horseradish. Second, some chopped dill pickled green beans and their brine (because it’s what we had - I wonder if olives would work or be too much?). Third, I used regular Worcestershire. Finally, I added a lot more Tabasco. As with the drink, this can be seasoned and adorned to taste. Bacon? Shrimp? Peperoncini? I don’t see why not!
added boiled shrimp to the salad and lemon and lime juice, plus Worcestershire sauce to the dressing! yum!!
100-percent agree on adding horseradish to the dressing, but it felt like it was still missing something to me. Then it hit me-- Bloody Marys always have some pickled veggies in them! Added a spoonful of Caper brine and now it's perfect. Strongly recommend this modification :)
This recipe is very weak in flavor overall. With most of the ingredients being relatively slick there is litter for the dressing and flavors to latch onto. It’s just a simple tomato salad that is a bit too much with the large slices. I don’t think any alteration could rescue this dish for me.
Made this as written but I forgot to get parsley so I added some basil and that MADE this dish. So good. I ate about half the salad by myself!
Really good but was a bit watery. Not exactly sure why as I followed the recipe faithfully. Used a mix of colorful heirloom tomatoes combined with a mix of cherry tomatoes which made the salad beautiful to look at.
So good! Perfect way to use those garden-grown tomatoes. Brought this to a brunch and it was a hit. I sprinkled feta cheese and fresh basil on top; both were great additions. Definitely making it again.
I made this twice, the first time with (a reduced amount of) Worcestershire instead of the suggested balsamic and soy. Added a bunch (probably about 1 T) of horseradish, as suggested and more hot sauce until it tasted like a bloody Mary. The second time I followed the recipe as written and while it doesn't taste as much like a bloody, I thought it was a better salad as written.
Had this roughly 18h and then again 42h after I‘d originally made it. The first time was good, the second time was amazing. It might look more like soup than salad after such a long time but it‘s actually the juices that taste the best.
This was delicious. Made exactly as written using Roma tomatoes. Next time I may try using a sweet onion instead of the red which was rather strong for my taste and add more celery and maybe a bit of horseradish. The dressing I am definitely using on other salads as well. It is fantastic.
This salad is amazing! Make a half recipe for delicious and quick afternoon snack!
Beautiful salad that is reminiscent of a bloody mary.
Wondering if a little horseradish might work?
Served this with some fish and roasted broccoli! Was a huge hit! I got expensive heirloom tomatoes, pricey, but worth it!
This is so good. I added massaged kale and zucchini from the garden. I'll be making this for the rest of the summer. Next time I'll add horseradish!
I felt it needed a pickle-y element so I add sliced green olives.
I second those who call for horseradish. Many New Orleans Style Remoulades have this as a component for kick. I would go over the top in presentation. Think salad in glasses rather than bowls/plates. Add your favorite BM garnish. Mine is pickled green beans. Pickled okra would be great. And how about an Old Bay spice rim? If you are energetic enough, setting up a "Bloody Mary" Tomato Salad bar where guest could mix an match would be a lot of fun.
