You are doing it wrong: Here's the best way to cut a watermelon

karpouzi-paidi

Everybody loves to grab a giant piece of watermelon and eat it from side-to-side but if you don’t want to make a big mess or you are sharing the melon with others or you just want to put a couple small pieces on a plate with other items then you might appreciate this way of cutting watermelons.  

The tip comes from Mama Say What and I would suggest only using this cutting way on small to medium sized watermelons. 

   

  1. Cut the watermelon in half

  2. Take one half and place it cut side down. Cut it into sections approximately 1 to 1.5 inches thick

  3. Rotate the melon 90° and repeat, creating 1 inch squares in the skin

  4. Toss the end pieces that are mostly or all skin and rind. Then pick up the pieces and eat

  5. Enjoy!

That was so much easier than doing this…
