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
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.
That is awesome!
😂😂😂
Took off for a week? She's getting some pipes fitted, bud.
@@joebenson528if your first thought is she’s cheating, i feel sorry for you.

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!
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.
I just pick the ugliest one it usually works haha.
try looking for the yellow spot
I'm cutting a melon right now 😂 all done!! It's not hard
Thank you!
Great video. Thank you

The white part is one of the best parts
Really, you eat that?

The huge Key is a good sharp knife!
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.
Did not know that... thanks
Looks very do-able 😋
Try it
Pro tip, sprinkle with Himalayan salt and lemon 🍋 "yummy yummy for my tummy"
I was actually thinking about this the other day. I never salt fruit and why not?
Love the cap!!!
Ya buddy!
I'm watching this while eating watermelon.xD
Excellent sharing 5:43
Subscribed. Thx : )
Thanks for the sub!
Question ?, would this technique also work well for a mini watermelon just as well ? Or would you recommend a different technique ???
Sure I don't see why not.
I have an entire post with some other great info about cutting watermelons... check it out. homecookbasics.com/how-to-cut-a-watermelon/
I always hoped ,,im waiting for the book too..call it cubes who cares..😅😅
I sent it to my 20yr old son instead of trying to explain it to him😄
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.)

Nice video as always but the volume on your voice seems really low. Keep up the good work!
Hey thanks for that. I thought the same, I will fix it for future vids.
@@homecookbasics tbh i can hear perfectly fine
turn ur volume up. jk
Wouldn't a slicing knife work better?
What's the name of the knife?
Chef 🔪 Wusthof is the brand.
Hey
Dude sounds like he is on tranquilizers.
Get excited
Quick and easy but yet 6 mins what the heck?! Lol this needs to be 1 min max
Hey thanks for the video, quick question: is this the first time you have used a knife? GET YOUR FINGERS OFF THE BLADE MAN. I mean there's a handle
Apparently his isn't as juicy as the MellonI have. If I did mine like that there would be juice everywhere! 😂 Don't get me wrong I ❤️ it like it is ijs 🤷🏿♂️
Great video but you need to speak a little louder, I had to turn my computer up to 50 to hear, my whole office learned some tips and tricks today lol :)
Sorry about that
Thank you great video.
What is his problem
Boston accent detected.
You think?
His hands all over that watermelon and he wasted so much
Yep I cook using my hands, how do you?
You didnt cut based on the location of the seeds to deseed it. I guess this is fine for seedless watermelon only.
Thanks for the advice. But I can’t stop looking at your nostrils for some reason.
And to make it easier throw that hat in the garbage
Boston sucks ! Lol
Hey Mets Fan...lol
@@homecookbasics Yankees actually lol
Just cut the watermelon. All that talking ain’t necessary!!!
20 min to cut watermelon lame
Shhh, it works.
You talk too much! I’m at work trying to cut watermelons 😾
😁
