How to make watermelon pizza

August 24, 2020

Watermelon pizza slices

This weekend, it’s been sweltering here in Northern California, coupled with lots of smoke in the air. I retreated to my childhood and indulged in a family favorite, watermelon, to help keep our temperature down, and spirits high.

I located an enormous watermelon that could help quench our thirst and bring a smile on everyone’s face. Who doesn’t love watermelon! Before I could slice the watermelon, my seven-year-old son already had plans for the melon: He requested to eat all of it. Of course, he couldn’t get past his sister with this type of request. She’s also a great fan of watermelon and wouldn’t allow him to make such a decision.

While the kids were bickering about the watermelon, I put together ingredients to create a watermelon pizza. They’d had the American version with strawberries, grapes, blueberries, etc. However, this time, I wanted to make it tropical. I found some tropical favorites in my refrigerator, like guava and tangerine. I also picked a few mint leaves from my garden and some feta cheese.

Here’s my watermelon pizza recipe:

Meet Mayma

Sakafete! Growing up in Dominica, food was central to socializing and in abundance. Cooking with my family was one of the highlights of my youth. We grew our produce and raised livestock, which often made it to our kitchen table. With my mother and grandmother's guidance, I discovered my passion for cooking at age 9. We used lots of verbal recipes then. Today, I share those culinary experiences with my children, using the fundamentals of Dominican cooking and making it our own. I'm not a trained cook/chef, however, as I embark on my food journey, I invite you to experience foods from the Caribbean island of Dominica. Let's cook!
