Crisp Tomato, Cucumber, and Red Onion Summer Salad

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I was trying to duplicate an Afghani shepard salad and found that the sugar was necessary to duplicate that taste. However, used rice vinegar and NO oil of any kind because that's how I eat my salad. I didn't have a basil leaf, so I substituted dried cilantro. I was pleased with the result, which tasted like the salad at my local Afghani restaurant. Mission accomplished.
