As said out loud
Stop cutting your watermelon wrong. Here's how to cut a watermelon the right way.
Stop cutting your watermelon wrong. Here's how to cut a watermelon the right way. Start by cutting off the ends to give yourself a flat stable surface. Then cut the watermelon in half. Now you can easily cut that into wedges and transfer them to a serving platter. If you want to serve your watermelon without the skins, here's my favorite method. Start by cutting off the end. Flip the watermelon onto the flat side and start trimming off the watermelon skin. Make sure to cut off all of the skin and the white rind. Cut the watermelon into slices, then taking a couple slices at a time, cut those into strips. Turn them and cut into cubes. Transfer that to a large serving bowl and that's it. And now you know how to cut a watermelon. Let me know which one's your favorite.
