Notes
Cucumber: It is best to use a seedless cucumber for the best texture and flavor. If you use a garden cucumber, be sure to peel and seed it before adding it to the salsa.Cilantro: If you don't like cilantro, feel free to use fresh mint instead or omit it entirely.Onion: For the best flavor, use a white sweet onion in this salsa recipe.Feta: Omit the feta for a dairy-free version of Watermelon Salsa.Storage: This watermelon salsa is best served within a few hours of assembly, as it will become watery as it sits. If you happen to have leftovers, store the watermelon salsa in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 48 hours. Use a fine-mesh strainer to drain off the excess water that forms before serving the watermelon salsa.
