This recipe is a twist on traditional salsa, and pairs well with fish and poultry. It comes from “The Summer Table,” a cookbook by Lisa Lemke (Sterling Epicure) that was published in March. Serves 4.
Ingredients
1 pound seedless watermelon, rind removed
1 small red onion
¼ teaspoon liquid smoke
½ teaspoon smoky hot sauce, such as Chipotle Tabasco
1 tablespoon canola oil
¾ cup coarsely chopped cilantro
Flaked sea salt and coarsely ground black pepper
Directions
Cut the watermelon into cubes and place them in a bowl. Thinly slice the onion and add it along with the liquid smoke, hot sauce, canola oil and cilantro.
Mix everything and season to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate the salsa for 20 minutes before serving.
