Peel the crust off the onion and discard. Remove 1 or 2 layers of the onion skin and discard. Slice the onion whole in circles, forming rings. The slices should be no thicker than a pasta noodle, think onion linguini. Season the sliced onion and place in a bowl. Generously dress the onions with the yogurt vinaigrette and top with a lot of the fresh herb salad. Garnish with a pinch of toasted caraway seeds.
