Cut the tomatoes into random 1-inch chunks directly over a bowl.

Generously add salt to the tomatoes and stir to release juices.

Let the salted tomatoes sit for at least half an hour to accumulate juices.

After half an hour, check the accumulated tomato juices in the bowl.

Add a little dried oregano to the tomatoes, being careful not to add too much to avoid bitterness.

Slice a few rounds of red onion and add them to the bowl, adjusting the amount to taste.

Slice a few pieces of cucumber and add them to the salad (optional).

Add one to two kalamata olives per person on top of the salad.

Cut slabs of feta cheese and place them on top of the salad instead of crumbling them.

Drizzle a generous amount of extra virgin olive oil over the salad.

Sprinkle a little more oregano on top for garnish.
