Wash the tomatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Cut the tomatoes into bite-sized wedges or slices, depending on your preference, and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Peel the red onion and slice it into very thin rings or half-moons. Add the onion slices to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the tomatoes and onions in the bowl.
In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the white balsamic vinegar, olive oil, water, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the tomato mixture and gently toss everything together to coat the vegetables evenly without breaking them apart.
Let the salad sit for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Transfer the tomatensalat to a serving dish or individual plates. Garnish with a few extra parsley leaves if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
