How to Cut a Watermelon | Cubes and Triangles

[@the.keisha.crawford]

I'm 36 and had to search "how to cut a watermelon" lol Thanks for being there to teach us the basics!

[@whitneysanders6996]

This is by far the easiest way to do it

[@10laws2liveby]

I like your show. It's simple, down to earth and without a lot of BS. Im 83 and learned a lot of things that would have made many things so much easier. Probably won't get much use out of all this, time constraints, but never too old to learn. Thanks

[@KJ33]

I am as amateur at cutting anything amateur at cooking i barely do anything when it comes to any of this. Picked up a knife and cut watermelon like a pro my wife said because of thie vid. 10/10

[@arkady714]

The flat spot is an excellent idea. The GF and I went shopping and bought a whole watermelon. She knew how to do it but took off this morning without cutting it. I'm stuck with it for about a week and needed instruction. This vid was a big help. Thanks for taking the trouble to make it.

[@homecookbasics]

That is awesome!

Took off for a week? She's getting some pipes fitted, bud.

[@paradiseview]

Watermelon rind is rich in nutrients, but still, most people throw it in the garbage without thinking. It is rich in antioxidants, minerals, vitamins, and some active ingredients. These peels are low in calories, but they are rich in vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin B6, potassium, and zinc.

[@homecookbasics]

Did not know that... thanks

[@BarbBernard]

Thanks this turned out great!

[@RogueWave2030]

Looks very do-able 😋

I love watermelon but man, I am so bad at picking a good one. If I can ever pick a good one, this is good to know on how to do!

[@homecookbasics]

Yes picking them out can be tricky. I have been told to look for the yellow spot that they were sitting on in a field.

[@whitneysanders6996]

I just pick the ugliest one it usually works haha.

[@gigi5168]

Excellent sharing 5:43

[@gomersmith1061]

Make a flat spot on any fruit or vegetable where stability is needed: cutting shoestring potatoes, wedging or slicing an onion, and especially hard squashes! But be really careful with these. Consider investing in a cleaver, or long scalloped cheese or bread knife to facilitate safe entry into these very hard and large gourds/squash/berries/modified berries. (All terms are correct for these botanical berries. BTW, all melons are also berries.)

[@kevinjewell3100]

Great vid! Thanks for the tips! I cut my mellon with success! Everyone loves it.

[@homecookbasics]

That's great!

[@johnnulf624]

The main thing I got from this video was the easiest way to cut a watermelon is to have a sharp knife

[@davetbrunner]

How do I go about doing this right handed?

[@jonathanleduc8644]

You didnt cut based on the location of the seeds to deseed it. I guess this is fine for seedless watermelon only.
