Steps:
- Prepare the ginger simple syrup: In a small pot, combine the water, sugar and ginger. Bring to a boil and simmer for 3 minutes until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat, cover and steep for 5 minutes. Strain. Stir in the lime juice. Set aside.
- Prepare the lime salt: Mix the lime zest with salt together in a small cup or bowl. Rub the zest into the salt until completely mixed.
- Prepare the watermelon and toppings: With the tip of a paring knife, make an outline on the top of one watermelon slice that is 1/4-inch from the edge and 1/4-inch deep. Make a pocket in the slice by sticking the knife in the side of the slice 1/4-inch deep. Lift out the cut piece on top of the slice. Enjoy the cut piece as a chef's snack or save for another use. Repeat with the remaining watermelon slices. The prepared watermelon slices are now watermelon plates.
- Using a skewer, poke 6 to 8 holes halfway through each watermelon plate. Set aside.
- Prepare the strawberry-peach topping: Combine the strawberries, peaches and about 2 tablespoons of the ginger simple syrup in a medium bowl. Add the basil and gently toss.
- Prepare the radish topping: Combine the radishes, red onions, jalapeno, olive oil and vinegar in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add the mint and gently toss.
- Sprinkle the watermelon plates with the lime salt. Top half of the watermelon plates with the strawberry mixture. Top the remaining half of the watermelon plates with the radish mixture.
