WATERMELON CUCUMBER SALAD
All of my friends loved this tasty, refreshing watermelon salad, so I thought I would add it as my first Allrecipes recipe. It was inspired by another recipe on here, but strayed far enough from the original that I thought it deserved its own recipe. Enjoy.

SMASHED CUCUMBER AND WATERMELON SALAD
Smashed cucumber salad (or pai huang gua) is a staple side dish in many Chinese restaurants and usually consists of cucumbers tossed with black vinegar, soy sauce, garlic and sesame seeds (or oil). In other variations, chiles and sometimes Sichuan peppercorn are added. We started with the technique of smashing the cucumbers, which creates jagged edges and more surface area for the dressing to get absorbed, and salting them, which softens the skin, firms up the flesh and releases some water to concentrate the flavor, then added a twist. This version combines the freshness of sweet watermelon and an abundance of herbs with a little heat from chiles and ginger. It's a bright summer salad that hits all the flavor receptors.

Steps:
- Partially peel the cucumbers in strips and cut in half lengthwise. Using a spoon, scrape out the seeds. Firmly smash the cucumber pieces with the flat side of a cleaver or large knife (or a rolling pin) until the cucumbers split in half naturally. Pull apart the 2 sides of the cucumbers along the natural split. Cut the cucumbers into 1-inch pieces diagonally.
- Toss together the cucumbers and 2 teaspoons salt in a medium bowl. Let sit at room temperature until the cucumbers have released some liquid, about 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, add the neutral oil and shallots to a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shallots are mostly browned, about 6 minutes. Set aside to cool, about 20 minutes (the shallots will continue to brown).
- When the shallot oil mixture is cool, stir in the following ingredients in this order: the lime zest, Chinese black vinegar, ginger, soy sauce, sugar, 1 teaspoon of the sesame seeds, the red chile and lime juice until the sugar is dissolved; set aside.
- Drain the cucumbers and dry them with a paper towel. Toss the cucumbers, watermelon, cilantro and mint in the lime-soy dressing and transfer to a plate. Garnish with the remaining toasted sesame seeds and additional cilantro and mint.

Steps:
- To cube the cucumber: Cut the ends off the cucumber. Then thinly slice off all four long sides of the cucumber so that it resembles a long rectangle. Cut into thirteen 1-inch cubes. (Reserve the remaining cucumber for another use.)
- To cube the watermelon: Cut off the ends. Cut the watermelon into 1-inch round slices. Use a cucumber cube as a guide to cut the watermelon into thirteen 1-inch cubes. (Discard the rind and reserve the remaining watermelon for another use.)
- To cube the feta: Cut into four 1-inch cubes using a cucumber cube as a guide.
- To build the salad, make the bottom layer: Arrange 3 cubes across the top of a serving platter and then 5 cubes down, alternating cucumber and watermelon cubes (you should have something that resembles the number "7"). Fill in the "7" to make a 3-by-5-inch rectangle by alternating cucumber and watermelon cubes to create a checkerboard pattern. Occasionally swap out a cube of cucumber or watermelon with a cube of feta to integrate the 4 cubes into the pattern. There should be 15 cubes. To build the top layer, repeat the checkerboard pattern with the remaining 15 cucumber and watermelon cubes making sure that all the feta cubes are covered and every bottom cucumber cube is topped with a watermelon cube and vice versa.
- Drizzle the cubed salad with the oil and then sprinkle with the pepper, basil and mint leaves.
CUCUMBER AND WATERMELON RADISH SALAD
A good buddy of mine and someone I cook with frequently is very comfortable cooking Japanese-inspired food. This is a recipe I picked up from him several years ago and make all the time for friends and family. The preparation is simple, and the flavors are fresh and bold.

CUCUMBER, MELON AND WATERMELON SALAD
Watermelon and feta has been in vogue for some time (and forever in Greece). I decided to throw in some of my endless supply of cucumbers and mix it up with the melons. I cut the melon and cucumber into medium-size dice (1/2 to 3/4 inch), but you can also make this more like a salsa and cut the produce into fine dice.
