Do y’all put salt on your watermelon? It’s an old trick that concentrates the juices of the melon, making it that much sweeter. I’m a big fan, and ever since I tasted my friend Tiffany’s amped-up version at a July 4th party, my watermelon consumption has reached new heights… Follow the jump for the simplest of summer recipes!
Cut a ripe watermelon into big wedges, then sprinkle with sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and finely chopped mint. The longer this sits in your fridge, the more the juice concentrates and the better this watermelon gets. Enjoy!
loved your post!!! I usually serve watermelon with a big chunk of super delish feta cheese, and some greek olives… you gotta try it, all the guests adore it!!

I haven’t tried this, but can’t wait to. This evening most likely.

What a great take on watermelon!!
Try squeezing lime over watermelon – delish! Works perfectly in homemade watermelon margaritas or Popsicles.
I absolutely salt my watermelon as well as cantaloupe!
Looks delicious!! Great treat for the summer!
Great tip, and lovely photos
thanks
