Directions:

You can cut the cucumbers in any way you want. I like to score them with a channel cutter.
Here I cut them and salt them a bit so that the excess water and some of the bitterness out.
Meanwhile slice the onions, cut the watermelon, chop the mint or parsley, and measure out the feta chunks. |

Channel Cutter for Cucumbers and Lemons |

I like to bring the dressing elements, water, vinegar and sugar to a simmer, just to dissolve it well.

Add all the ingredients except the feta together and blend so all is coated and well mixed.
I add the feta last so it doesn't dissolve into the dressing.

This salad gives you a feeling of cool refreshment just to look at it! |
