Some foods are just meant for each other. Peanut butter and jelly, bacon and cheeseburgers, and ice cream and chocolate fudge are just a few culinary matches made in heaven. Watermelon has a delicious partner, too, and it’s one that many people probably haven’t tried – paired with watermelon, that is.
This partner is feta cheese.
When you think about it, the relationship makes perfect sense. Watermelon is crisp and sweet. Feta cheese is soft and salty. Together, the two foods create a balance of tastes and textures that help them bring out the best in each other.
If you don’t believe me, whip up this recipe for Watermelon Feta Salad and taste that relationship for yourself. You won’t be disappointed!
