Step by step instructions to CUT A WATERMELON | 1-MINUTE VIDEO 

Here is my #1 strategy for how to cut into a new watermelon 4 different ways — into wedges, 3D shapes, balls, and a "bowl". Continuously be extra-cautious with that underlying cut into the watermelon when the round surfaces are on your cutting load up, and keep your supporting hand/fingers out of the line of the blade consistently.

The most effective method to Choose WATERMELON. 

All in all, you need to search for a watermelon at the market that: 

feels substantial and thick for its size (the ripest watermelons hold the most water in them) 

has a velvety yellow "field" right on target the base where it sat on the ground (versus a white or greenish spot) 

makes a profound empty sound when you give it a decent thump (versus a dull crash; the surface ought to likewise be overall quite hard) 

has a little bit on the end rather than a stem (which frequently implies it tumbled off the plant all alone, instead of being picked too soon) 

is consistently molded (for example genuinely even; odd knocks can show conflicting watering) 

are in season (top season runs from May to September, albeit different districts may change marginally) 

The most effective method to STORE New WATERMELON; 

Capacity time will rely upon how ready your watermelon is the day that you bring it home from the market. However, by and large, it's prescribed to store an uncut watermelon in a cool dull spot for as long as 3 days. Or then again, on the off chance that you cut the watermelon into equal parts, wrap it firmly in saran wrap and refrigerate for as long as 3 days. Or on the other hand, on the off chance that you feel free to 3D square or ball the watermelon, refrigerate it in a fixed holder for as long as 3 days.
