Tips
To reduce the sharpness of red onions, soak them in ice water for 10-20 minutes after slicing.
Use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best bright and fresh flavor.
If mint is unavailable, fresh basil can be used as a substitute.
To easily cube watermelon, cut it in half, place cut-side down, and cut a grid pattern into the flesh, then cube the resulting sticks.
