How to make a salad with beans and tomatoes. Prepare the necessary ingredients. You can use any beans. You will need to drain the liquid from the canned one, soak the dry one overnight and boil it until soft in salted water. The main thing is not to overcook it so that it doesn’t fall apart. You can use any bread for the salad, but the dish is especially tasty with croutons made from rye bread. It is advisable to use olive oil, but regular sunflower oil will also work.
