Tips for Watermelon Salad

Choose a ripe, deeply colored watermelon; it should smell sweet and feel heavy for its size.
Keep the onion slices thin so their sharpness does not overpower the juicy melon and delicate mint.
Add the dressing shortly before serving; watermelon releases liquid as it sits, which can dilute the flavors.
