CHERRY TOMATO AND WATERMELON SALAD
If in-season cherry tomatoes are unavailable, substitute vine-ripened cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes, avoiding pale, unripe ones. The amount of liquid given off by the tomatoes will depend on their ripeness. If you have less than 1/2 cup of juice after spinning, proceed with the recipe using the entire amount of juice and reduce it to 3 tablespoons as directed (cooking time will be shorter).

Return tomatoes to bowl and set aside. Strain tomato liquid through fine-mesh strainer into liquid a measuring cup, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
- Bring 1/2 cup tomato liquid (discard any extra), shallot, and vinegar to simmer in small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until reduced to 3 tablespoons, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer mixture to small bowl and cool to room temperature, about 5 minutes. Whisk in oil and pepper to taste until combined. Taste and season with up to 1/8 teaspoon table salt.
- Add the drained watermelon, mint, feta, and dressing to bowl with tomatoes; toss gently and serve.
