Watermelon Salsa Recipe • Colorful & Delicious! | Club Foody

 

Here in North America 🌎, when people see “salsa”, many refer to it as a dip, often spicy, served with tortilla chips. Actually, it literally means “sauce” in both Spanish and Italian. It’s commonly used as a condiment. These sauces are frequently made with a tomato-base along with onions, chilies and spices.
 
David and I like making 👩‍🍳👨‍🍳 salsa. It’s easy to prep and we enjoy its versatility. There’s Pico de Gallo, Salsa Verde, Fire Roasted Salsa, and Spicy Tropical Salsa. Another one that joins this fabulous list is my Watermelon Salsa!
 
Like the Spicy Tropical Salsa, this featured recipe is not your typical sauce! Although most common salsa is a tomato-based 🍅 condiment known as “salsa picante”, it can also be a mix of different ingredients and spices.
 
Colorful, this Watermelon Salsa is incredibly tasty! I like serving it along with a nice grilled fish 🐟, octopus, shrimp, crab cakes, chicken or pork. It can also be an addition to a recipe. Of course, the most obvious way to enjoy it is as a snack with tortilla chips or crostini.
 
After the salsa ingredients are well blended, the mixture is chilled for 1 hour ⏰ or until ready to serve to allow the flavors to mingle. If you’re running out of time, try to let it sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
 
Meanwhile, there’s a little dressing I like making for it. One of its ingredients is agave nectar. I normally use just ½ tablespoon because watermelon and mango 🥭 already bring sweetness to the dish, and it doesn’t need more than that…
 
It keeps for up to 3 days, BUT the next day, you might have extra liquid at the bottom of the bowl due to the lime juice extracting the juice from the fruits and veggies. Simply stir 🥄 and drain the extra. Don’t worry, you’ll still have the flavor from the dressing.
 
As I’ve said many times – “we eat with our eyes first”, and this recipe delivers it perfectly! With a beautiful combination of ingredients, this original Watermelon Salsa 🍉 is a delicious dish to make this season while fresh produce is available!
Bon Appétit! 🍽
