Notes

  • Choose a ripe watermelon. For the sweetest flavor, pick a watermelon that feels heavy for its size and has a creamy yellow field spot. Ripe watermelon makes the salad naturally sweet and juicy.
  • Serve the salad chilled. This salad tastes best when served cold. Chill the watermelon before assembling the salad or refrigerate the finished salad for 10–15 minutes before serving.
  • Add the dressing right before serving. Watermelon releases a lot of juice, so tossing the salad just before serving keeps it fresh and prevents it from becoming watery.
  • Customize the salad. You can add extra ingredients for more flavor and texture such as:
    • sliced cucumber
    • thinly sliced red onion
    • avocado
    • arugula or baby spinach
  • Best served fresh. This salad is best eaten the same day. If storing leftovers, keep them refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 1 day.
