How To Cut A Watermelon Into Cubes

HERE IS ANOTHER GREAT TIP I FOUND ON PINTEREST!!!!!


Step #1:  Cut the melon in half (after you have rinsed it)




Step#2: Cut the end off one of the halves.



Step #3:  Place the melon face down on your cutting board.



Step #4:  This is the tricky part. Angle your knife and start cutting off the rind.

Rotate the melon and remove the rind all the way around.  Important tip:  You will be tempted to only remove the white part  and get as close as you can to the red, while saving the precious red part of the melon.  BUT – if you don’t remove enough, then you will taste the bitter/sour flavor of the rind.  In my experience, it is best to not only cut off all of the white rind, but cut slightly into the red part.  Trust me.  You will love your watermelon this way.


You have now finished the hardest part.  The rest is a breeze.



Step #5:  Slice horizontally into 3 sections.




Step #6: Cut into pieces – whatever size your prefer.



Now chill in your fridge and enjoy some ice cold juicy watermelon!
