Fresh Tomato Salad with Preserved Lemon

Fresh Tomato Salad with Preserved Lemon Serves 4

This simple salad is a light side dish served as a refreshing contrast to some of the pungent spices found in many Moroccan dishes. It's best of course, when tomatoes are in season and at the height of their flavor.
