- Transfer tomatoes to salad spinner and spin until seeds and excess liquid have been removed, 45 to 60 seconds, stirring to redistribute tomatoes several times during spinning.
- NOTE 1: If you don't have a salad spinner, after the salted tomatoes stand for 30 minutes, wrap the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and gently shake to remove seeds and excess liquid. Strain the liquid and proceed with the recipe as directed. The amount of liquid given off by the tomatoes will depend on their ripeness. --------.
- Strain tomato liquid through fine-mesh strainer into liquid measuring cup, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
- NOTE 2: 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.
- Bring 1/2 cup tomato liquid (discard any extra), shallots, and vinegar to simmer in small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until reduced to 3 tablespoons, 6 to 8 minutes.

WATERMELON, MINT, BASIL, FETA SALAD
Steps:
- Combine watermelon and leaves in large bowl. Whisk together remaining ingredients and gently toss with watermelon. Gently add feta.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use ripe watermelon. A ripe watermelon will have a deep red color and a sweet taste.
- If you don't have feta cheese, you can substitute another type of cheese, such as goat cheese or mozzarella cheese.
- If you don't have fresh mint, you can use dried mint. However, fresh mint will give the salad a more refreshing flavor.
- You can add other ingredients to the salad, such as chopped cucumber, red onion, or avocado.
- Serve the salad immediately after making it. The watermelon will start to release its juices and the salad will become watery if it sits for too long.
