A bright, tangy and honey-sweetened salad that you’ll want to pass around in one jar, with umpteen forks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound rhubarb, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2 cups watermelon, chopped into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, add the sliced rhubarb.
  2. Zest the lime and set the zest aside.
  3. In a small saucepot, bring the honey and water to a simmer until it is full incorporated. Squeeze the juice from the lime into the simple syrup. Continue to simmer until it is reduced by a third in volume.

  5. When ready to serve, cube the watermelon and toss in with the rhubarb. Toss in the lime zest last.
