TOMATO AND WATERMELON SALAD WITH MOZZARELLA



Tomato and Watermelon Salad with Mozzarella image

Slice the tomatoes in big and small pieces for a more dramatic salad. For best results, make the salad without ever refrigerating the tomatoes, but with the watermelon ice cold from the refrigerator. The contrast of temperatures will give the salad an extra fresh taste. You will need Mozzarella in the "bag" with liquid; the liquid is used in the dressing.

Provided by Alex Guarnaschelli

Time 15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
6 to 8 ounces mozzarella cheese, cut into 12 small slices, liquid reserved
4 tablespoons pickle juice (from the jar)
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves, tightly packed, stemmed, washed, dried and chopped
2 ounces coarse sea salt
2 ripe beefsteak (or any large variety heirloom) tomatoes, washed, dried and stemmed
1 pint cherry (Sweet 100's or heirloom) tomatoes, washed, dried and stemmed
Granulated sugar
Coarsely ground black pepper
The juice from 1/2 to 1 lemon, depending on personal taste
6 ounces cold watermelon, rind removed, seeded, cut into bite-size cubes and refrigerated until just before serving

Steps:

  • For the dressing: In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, mozzarella liquid and pickle juice. Whisk in the vinegar. Taste for seasoning. Set aside.
  • For the herb salt: Put the parsley and the salt in the bowl of the food processor and pulse to blend until they are integrated and the salt is green. Keep in a sealed jar.
  • To assemble the salad: Slice and arrange the tomatoes in a single layer on a flat surface. Drizzle the tomatoes with a little sugar, black pepper and the dressing. Top with a sprinkle of the parsley salt. Taste a tomato slice for seasoning. Squeeze the lemon juice on the watermelon. Season the mozzarella slices with parsley salt and a little dressing, as well. Arrange the tomatoes, mozzarella and watermelon cubes on 6 rectangular plates. Serve immediately.

GRILLED WATERMELON AND TOMATO SALAD



Grilled Watermelon and Tomato Salad image

This salad is an ode to summer. I love to grill the watermelon after it's been brushed with a little bit of the honey-lime vinaigrette. The sugars from the melon caramelize nicely on the grill and add the best smoky flavor.

Provided by Kardea Brown

Categories     appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 large cloves garlic
1 large shallot, halved
2/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (from 2 to 3 limes)
Zest of 1 lime (about 1 teaspoon)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons salted butter
1 cup pecan halves
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 small seedless watermelon (about 9 1/2 pounds)
One 5-ounce container baby arugula
One 16-ounce container Campari tomatoes, cut into wedges
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion

Steps:

  • Make the honey-lime vinaigrette: Add the garlic and shallot to a food processor and pulse until minced. Turn off the motor and add the oil, honey, lime juice and lime zest. Process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Make the salad: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pecans and brown sugar and cook, stirring to coat, until the sugar begins to caramelize, about 3 minutes. Spread the pecans onto the prepared baking sheet and let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, trim the ends from the watermelon. Stand the watermelon on a cutting board, flat-side down, and cut into quarters. Set aside 2 quarters for another use. Cut the remaining 2 quarters crosswise into 1-inch-thick slices. Brush 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette onto the slices.
  • Preheat a grill to medium-high heat or place a grill pan over medium-high heat until hot. Grill the watermelon slices, in batches, in a single layer until warmed through and grill marks appear, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove the watermelon from the grill and let cool, about 15 minutes. Cut into bite-size cubes.
  • Arrange the arugula, grilled watermelon, tomatoes, feta cheese, pecans and red onions on a platter or in a salad bowl. Drizzle the remaining vinaigrette over the top and toss just before serving.

TOMATO-WATERMELON SALAD



Tomato-Watermelon Salad image

This is a fun recipe because the tomato and watermelon look very similar when diced, and they complement each other extremely well. Plus, it's customizable: you can add as much or as little of each ingredient as you prefer to make this bright summer salad.

Provided by Daniel Patterson

Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 heirloom tomatoes
1 small seedless watermelon
2-inch piece of ginger
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1/4 cup fruity extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
8 leaves basil (preferably opal basil)

Steps:

  • Peel tomatoes: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cut an "X" on the bottom of each tomato, then place into boiling water for about 10 seconds. Remove and discard peel; chop tomatoes and set aside. Remove watermelon rind: Slice off the bottom and top, then stand it upright on its flattened base. Remove the rind by carefully cutting strips away from top to bottom, following the flesh of the watermelon. Once the rind has been removed, slice the watermelon into rounds, then into strips. Chop the strips into a dice the same size as the tomato pieces. There should be equal amounts of tomato and watermelon.
  • Peel ginger with a vegetable peeler or the back of a knife; grate on a Microplane directly into the tomato-watermelon mixture. Add rice vinegar and olive oil. Sprinkle a reasonable amount of salt to balance the sweetness of the tomatoes and watermelon, making it savory. Add a few cranks of pepper and gently mix. Taste to adjust seasonings, and add more salt and grated ginger if necessary. Then gently toss again. Place in a serving bowl. Using scissors, thinly cut leaves of opal basil directly on top of the tomato-watermelon salad before serving.
