Cold sweet watermelon, salty feta, mint, and lime need very little interference. Draining cut melon briefly prevents a watery platter; dressing at the last moment preserves clean textures.
Earthy roasted beets and juicy orange are sharpened by sherry vinegar, dill, pistachio, and salty ricotta salata. Dressing red and golden beets separately preserves their colors.
Orzo is dressed while warm, then cooled before cucumber, tomato, olives, feta, and herbs are folded in. That sequence produces seasoned pasta without wilted vegetables.
