Small details, better dinner.

Practical notes for getting the texture right, adapting the ingredients, and saving what is left.

Technique notes
  • Use deeply ripe tomatoes and watermelon because this uncooked soup depends on their natural flavor.
  • Blend the olive oil in last for a smooth texture without excess foam.
Useful swaps
  • Red wine vinegar can replace lime juice.
  • Add a small jalapeño for heat or a spoonful of Greek yogurt for creaminess.
