Watermelon Salad With Radishes and Mint

If your watermelon isn’t very sweet, force it to be savory. That’s what I’ve done by adding the peppery bite of radishes and onion and a three-ingredient vinaigrette. With mint strewn all over the juicy fruit, this whole salad ends up being super-refreshing.

Ingredients
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 bunch red radishes, cut into ⅛-inch slices
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 red onion, cut into thin slivers
- 4 1/2 pounds watermelon (1/4 of a large melon), rind removed, flesh cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons torn mint leaves
Instructions
1. Dissolve a spoonful of salt in a large bowl of ice and water. Add the radishes and let sit for a few minutes to crisp.
2. Whisk the vinegar, oil, and 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Drain the radishes and add to the bowl, along with the onion and watermelon.
3. Gently toss with your hands to coat evenly.
4. Spread on a serving platter, grind pepper all over, and top with the mint.
