SHIRAZI SALAD STORAGE TIPS
Make ahead: It’s best to make Shirazi salad about 1 hour before serving so the flavors can meld.
You can also make it up to a day in advance and store it in the fridge. However, tomatoes and cucumbers might release water if you do so.
If this happens, drain some of the liquid from the salad, then add fresh olive oil and lime juice before serving it.
Refrigerator: Store Shirazi salad in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
Take it out of the fridge 15 minutes before serving it because the tomatoes taste best at room temperature.
