WATERMELON, RADISH AND AVOCADO SALAD

Watermelon works beautifully in summer salads, especially when paired with savory or bitter ingredients to balance its fragrant sweetness. This recipe is no exception. Adding radishes, arugula and diced avocado creates a mixture of contrasting flavors and textures that's colorful, refreshing and fun to eat. The dressing here is nothing more than olive oil and vinegar, but it becomes tangy-sweet when it mingles with the fresh watermelon juice. This salad happens to be vegan, and the avocados provide plenty of richness, but a sprinkle of shaved ricotta salata would be a nice addition, if you are so inclined. Finally, while you can make the dressing and prepare the watermelon, shallots and radishes in advance, wait to assemble and dress the salad until just before serving. Watermelon, as the name suggests, has a high water content and will start to release its juices the second the dressing is added.

Steps:

  • Place the watermelon, radishes and shallots in a large serving bowl. In a glass measuring cup or small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, salt and black pepper.
  • Just before serving, pour half of the dressing over the watermelon, radishes and shallots, and toss well. Add the arugula, the avocado and the rest of the dressing, and toss gently. Top with the fresh mint or basil and ricotta salata, if using. Season with more salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

1 pound 3/4-inch cubed watermelon, chilled (about 3 1/2 cups)
1 cup very thinly sliced radishes (4 to 5 radishes)
1 large shallot, thinly sliced
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon champagne or white wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal), plus more to taste
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, plus more to taste
2 1/2 ounces baby arugula (about 4 cups)
2 firm-ripe avocados, halved, pitted and diced
1/3 cup torn fresh mint or basil leaves
Shaved ricotta salata (optional)

MELON AND RADISH SALAD

Peppery watercress, a member of the mustard family, adds a spicy bite to this salad. When measuring greens such as watercress, pack them loosely. Make-Ahead Tip: Cover & chill cut melon up to 2 days. Prepare dressing as directed; cover and chill up to 24 hours.

  • Cantaloupe With Sugar Snap Peas and Ricotta Salata. Salty and sweet, crunchy and juicy, this throw-it-together summer side has it all. View Recipe.
  • Tomato-Watermelon Salad With Turmeric Oil. Red, juicy, and sweet, tomatoes and watermelon are soul mates, and they both need salt, spice, and fat to reach their full potential.
  • Melon Panzanella. In this unexpected take on panzanella, chunks of ripe melon take the place of tomatoes. But the unexpected star is the brine from the Peppadew peppers: Spicy, sweet, and tart, it combines with the melon's juices and soaks into the toasted bread.
  • Honeydew, Jicama, and Mango Salad. Don’t worry about removing all of the melon seeds in this take on the popular Mexican street snack—they’re edible and add a little crunch.
  • Honeydew Salad with Ginger Dressing and Peanuts. Just the side your barbecue ribs are looking for, this all-green salad gets a kick from serrano, ginger, and just a hint of fish sauce.
  • Watermelon, Endive, and Fig Salad. Perfect as either a side salad or a cocktail hour snack platter, you’re going to want to keep serving this mix of complementary sweet and salty and crunchy and soft bites all summer long.
  • Watermelon With Lime Dressing and Peanuts. The jagged, irregular chunks of fruit in this salad recipe make it clear that something unexpected is about to happen.
  • Cantaloupe and Cucumber Salad. Savory fruit salads are officially a thing. (And, for the record, cucumber is a fruit.) View Recipe.
  • Watermelon and Prosciutto with Mint and Toasted Almonds. Watermelon and prosciutto may seem like an unlikely pair, but the salty-sweet mix will make this your new go-to fruit salad.
  • Honeydew and Fennel Salad With Basil. If you have a perfectly ripe melon—great! If you don’t, no worries. The salt, acid, and a bit of heat here will give life to lackluster specimens.
