Watermelon just too... watery and insipid? Try squirting it with lots of lime juice and a generous sprinkle of powdered hot red pepper. DIY types might experiement with mixing cayenne with paprika until they hit the right proportions. Maybe a flavoring of powdered tamarind as well.
This is not at all unusual in Mexico, and the mixture may include salt but doesn't have to. It might be a little exotic in more northern climes. Good on about any sort of melon, really.

I love watermelon, and have been known to eat way too much of it given half a chance. But the other day I had a "watermelon smoothie," was was nothing but de-seeded watermelon put straight into the blender with nothing else added. And it tasted horrible. I had some of the source watermelon later, and it was fine. There was just something about the change in texture that completely ruined it.

This week I made quick pickled jalapenos. They are. fucking. awesome.
3 sliced jalapenos 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar 1/4 cup apple juice 1/4 cup honey 1/2 tsp salt Mix in a mason jar and let soak in the fridge for 1-5 days, shaking periodically. So far I have eaten them alone, wrapped in little pieces of prosciutto, and on a hot dog. Probably going to try them on a pizza sometime later this week. They will be a permanent resident of my refrigerator from now on. |

Nope, just sliced into little rings. You can kind of shake most of the seeds out that way, though. They're pretty damn hot on their own, but with a little something else in the same bite it takes the edge off nicely.

I'm not sure how unusual it is, but, I'm discovering the happiness that is strawberries in ginger ale.
About half the strawberries float.

Strawberries in gin and tonic is pretty good, too!
