Watermelon Skewers with Honey Lime Vinaigrette and Fusion® Thai Ginger Salt

Featuring: Fusion® Thai Ginger Salt & Pacific Blue® Kosher Flake Sea Salt
Like summer on a stick, a stunning dish is created when a honey, lime, fresh ginger and pickled jalapeño vinaigrette meets ripe, juicy watermelon. To make it even more delicious, we top it with crumbled feta cheese, freshly torn mint, and a healthy sprinkle of Fusion® Thai Ginger Salt. The vibrant mix of watermelon sweetness, jalapeño heat and zest from the ginger and lime is a delightful surprise to the senses. It is the perfect cooling accompaniment to spicy grilled steaks and ribs on a hot summer day.

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the first 6 ingredients (pickled jalapeños through lime juice). Slowly pour in olive oil while whisking to emulsify. Add Pacific Blue Kosher Flake Sea Salt and adjust ingredients to taste. Set aside.
  • Cut watermelon into medium-sized cubes. Thread about six onto each skewer, alternating with folded lime slices.
  • Place skewers on a large platter and spoon over vinaigrette, making sure to evenly distribute between the layers and skewers. Top with crumbled feta, torn mint and Thai Ginger Salt.
  • Serve chilled or at room temperature.
