In some parts of the world, watermelon season has already begun. But, even if it’s still chilly where you are, it’s never too soon to begin thinking about how you’re going to use this delicious and hydrating melon. Check out the recipes below and get the most flavor out of watermelon season.
Watermelon Salad
There is almost nothing more refreshing than the combination of watermelon and mint. This salad is perfect for BBQs or just dinner outside. To vamp up this recipe even more, add some baked prosciutto for a crispy salty element. Squeeze over some lime juice and add peanuts and you’re ready to serve.
Pickled Watermelon Rind
Don’t let any of your watermelon go to waste! This recipe is a classic southern side dish that can be used like any other pickled condiment in salads or on burgers and hot dogs. Each recipe calls for different variations of timing and boiling, but mostly all will involve water, sugar, salt, and various pickling spices.
Watermelon With Salt
Although it sounds odd, adding salt to plain watermelon will actually bring out the sweetness of the fruit. Even just a pinch will help, so try it the next time you cut up a melon.
