Watermelon Salad with Piment d'Ville and Feta
I was expecting a delivery of Boonville Barn's Piment d'Ville, and I knew what I wanted to try it with first, so all the ingredients were on hand and at the ready. Diced up a pretty good, but not great, watermelon, sprinkled it with with a dash of local, fruity EVOO, some lime juice and just a hint of salt and added the spicy version of the pepper. Then I added some coriander leaves, and dried and crumbled TJ's brined feta. Being a mild feta, it was a perfect adjunct to the other ingredients, with the spicy Piment d'Ville highlighting the dish. The pepper shone through like the star I hoped it would be.
