THANK GOOD TO SEE THINK GOOD. >> WE TRY TO COOK FRESH IN THE SEASONS IN 18. 33 THIS IS COMING UP ON OUR SUMMER MENU. >> LOVELY HEIRLOOM TOMATO AND GRILLED WATERMELON. SALAD >> SO, YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE THINGS WE LIKE TO DO IS PICK A NICE RIGHT, WATERMELON. GO OVER THAT JIM HAD TO PICK WHAT CAUSE I’VE HEA. YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO ROLL IT DOWN THE STORE THAT HIT IT ON THE SIDE 3 TIMES. ABSOLUTELY. SO WHAT I DO IS I JUST FLIP IT OVER. I TRY TO FIND THE SPOT ON IT. AND IF IT’S YELLOW THAT AFFLICT A COUPLE TIMES. OKAY. AND IF IT HAS A NICE, DEEP THUMP TO IT, I KNOW THAT IT’S RIGHT NOW KIND OF A HIGH-PITCHED THUMP. IT’S NOT QUITE RIGHT. AND IF THAT SPOT IS LIKE WHITISH, YEAH, PROBABLY NOT GOING TO BE A GOOD WATERMELON. NOT SOME WATERMELONS. DON’T EVEN HAVE A YELLOW SPOT. >> SO THAT’S WHERE THUMPING IT COMES INTO PLAY. AND THAT WOULD JUST CHALLENGE ANYBODY TO SEVERAL WATERMELONS ONE WITH THE DEEPEST THE THAT YOU WANT AND PEOPLE BE LOOKING AT YOU. BUT YOU’RE THE ONE TAKEN HOME. THE GOOD ONE. ON EXACTLY. SO HERE I HAVE SOME WATERMELON CUT UP AND WE’RE JUST GOING TO GRILL IT. >> AND WHAT YOU WANT TO DO IS JUST GET SOME GOOD KARMA WAS YOU WANT TO BRING IT TO THE POINT WHERE INC? >> JUST ALMOST BURNT, BUT NOT QUITE SO. ARE YOU LOSING SOME OF THE YOU WILL LOSE SOME OF THE JUICE, BUT THAT’S OKAY BECAUSE IT WILL STILL STAY MOIST LIKE WATERMELON IS. I DON’T KNOW THE EXACT RATIO, BUT THEY’RE PERCENT WATER OR SOMETHING LIKE WHATEVER THEY’RE GOOD. SO WHILE THIS IS GRILLING, WE’RE GOING TO MAKE VINAIGRETTE THAT KIND OF FLAVORS, THE WATERMELON. SO JUST GOING TO TAKE SOME SHALLOTS AND PUT SOME SHALLOTS RIGHT IN THE BOWL. AND SOME LIME JUICE WILL JUICE. >> FROM THE LINE, NOT THE LIME JUICE. YES, LINE, NOT THE LINE JUST IN THE CONTAINER. AND I LIKE TO PUT THIS IS ASKED OF THE LINE. >> RIGHT INSIDE OF THERE. AND JUST ABOUT A TABLESPOON OF HONEY. AND I LIKE TO LOCAL IT HELPS WITH YOUR ALLGIES. SOME THINGS ALSO HELPS WITH THE LOCAL ECONOMY HELPS YOUR LOCAL FARMER. SO. HERE WE ARE GOING THIS WE HAVE SOME CARMEL IS I THAT. YES, NOT LONG. AND THEN WHAT YOU WANT TO DO AFTER THIS WATERMELON IS GRILLED. YOU WANT TO CHILL IT DOWN AFTER IT’S CHILLED DOWN. THEN YOU’RE GOING TO DIE. SET UP. AND SO THAT’S THE VINAIGREE RIGHT THERE. IT’S LINE JUICE, HONEY, A LITTLE LINES ASKED AND SOME SHALLOTS THIS IS WHAT I MADE. AND THEN THAT’S IT MY NAME AND WE’RE JUST GOING TO CUBA UP A COUPLE OF TOMATOES JUST ABOUT AN SIZE RIGHT? CAUTIONED THE SAME SIZE AS YOU CUT YOUR WATERMELON. SO YOU DON’T USE A LITTLE GRAPE TOMATOES. YOU CAN USE THE GRAPE TOMATOES. I FIND THAT THESE LARGER HEIRLOOM VARIETIES HAVE A LITTLE MORE FLAVOR TO THEM. YOU KNOW, WE MISTER STRIKING BERKELEY, TYE DYE. THIS IS OX HEART. YOU KNOW, DIDN’T KNOW THAT ARE JUST DELICIOUS. DIFFERENCE THOSE WHO MAY KNOW HE SO SOME ARE MORE ACIDIC, WE SOME ARE MORE, YOU KNOW, AROUND YEAR MIXING THESE TOMATOES K AND THEN WE’RE GOING TO MIX IN SOME WATERMELON. GOES RIGHT IN WITH THAT.
