Advice

Slice the onion very thin and briefly rinse it under cold water to tame sharpness while keeping crunch.

Why it works

Salting the vegetables first pulls a little juice—this combines with oil and vinegar to form a bright, clingy dressing without diluting the salad.

Twist

For a market-style upgrade, add 1 tbsp capers or a handful of pitted olives; or swap half the vinegar for lemon juice for extra freshness.

Status

Simple, fresh, undefeated—Srpska salata vanishes faster than the cevapi beside it. #grannyzen #balkansalad
