Watermelon with Whipped Feta
A plush, dramatic take on the classic watermelon-and-feta salad: whipped feta flavored with lemon zest, topped with lemon-brightened watermelon for a silky sweet-and-salty dish.
Watermelon and feta make a classic summer salad, but this one is more plush and dramatic in presentation: In a food processor or blender, whip the feta, yogurt and lemon zest until smooth, spread it on a platter, then top with chunks of watermelon brightened by lemon juice and salt. The pull of sweet and salty is still there, albeit in a silkier form. Feel free to add arugula, or sliced cucumbers or tomatoes to the bowl of watermelon before spooning onto the feta.
