COOL AND CRUNCHY MELON-CUCUMBER SALAD
This summer, add cucumber to a melon salad to make it extra-crisp and cool. We cut watermelon and cantaloupe into cubes and balls for a beautifully geometric presentation that can be eaten with toothpicks. We also tossed them as a salad, dressed with yuzu juice (available at Asian supermarkets and specialty stores), though it's equally out-of-this-world with lime or lemon juice.

MELON, CUCUMBER AND MINT SALAD
Alex loves mint in many forms: muddled in a cocktail, layered in a sandwich or tossed with fruit like in this melon salad.

Steps:
- Place the melons on a flat surface and split each one in half. Scoop out and discard the seeds. Slice the ends off, then slice off the skin with a knife. Cut the flesh into 1- to 2-inch chunks. Transfer 1 heaping cup of melon chunks to a blender. Refrigerate the remaining melon chunks in a large bowl until chilled.
- Make the dressing: Add 3 tablespoons olive oil, the lime zest and juice and the honey to the blender. Puree until smooth. Taste for seasoning; add more honey, if needed. Add a splash of water if needed to make a smooth dressing. Refrigerate the dressing until ready to serve.
- In a medium bowl, toss the cucumbers with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and a generous amount of pepper. Toss the chilled melon chunks with the dressing. Add the cucumbers, sprinkle the mint on top and mix a little.
