Aged balsamic vinegar is more expensive, but a little goes a long way to flavor this Mediterranean-style watermelon salad.

  • 2 cups seedless watermelon chunks
  • 3 kalamata olives, sliced
  • 3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 4 grape tomatoes, quartered
  • 1/4 cup strips shaved proccuito ham

  • 1 tablespoon aged balsamic vinegar
  • Coarse salt

Method

Arrange watermelon, olives, feta, tomato, and proccuito on a serving platter. Drizzle with olive oil and vinegar. Sprinkle with a dash of salt and fresh ground pepper. Garnish with sprigs of watercress and enjoy a wonderful summer salad.

 

Notes: The watermelon should be cut into 1"x1" cubes. The watercress should have no large stems. Use a 12 year old balsamic at least; 25 years is ideal.

 

Number of Servings: 2 to 4
