5 Essential Tips For Choosing THE BEST Watermelon.
Nothing is more refreshing than a good, sweet and juicy watermelon.
As long as you know how to choose it well at the market!
Maybe you think choosing a good watermelon is all about luck?
Well, think again!
Here are 5 tips for spot the best watermelon among all the others. Look, it's very simple:
1. The yellow spot
When choosing a watermelon, the first thing to look at is this odd yellowish spot. Do not worry. These spots are quite normal. This discolored area is the one that is in contact with the ground. Every watermelon has such a spot. But the best watermelons are those whose stain takes a yellowish or even orange color. There you are sure it will be delicious!
2. The brands
These gray traces on the watermelon indicate the number of times the bees have come to forage on the watermelon. The more pollination there has been and the sweeter the watermelon will be.
3. Is it a girl or a boy?
You may not know it, but watermelons have a gender. Yes, “male” watermelons are longer and taller. While "female" watermelons are rounder and larger. Male watermelons contain more water, whereas female watermelons are sweeter. Now that you know how to recognize them, all you have to do is choose them according to your taste!
4. The size
You might think that the bigger the watermelon, the better. At least we get what we pay for, especially if it's sold by the piece! But in reality, the best watermelons are of medium height. Neither too small nor too big. Just right. Yep, size really matters in the taste of watermelon.
5. The tail
The tail of a watermelon indicates its maturity. A green tail indicates it was picked too early. It will therefore not be good. Prefer watermelons whose tails are withered. Why ? Because they will taste better!
In conclusion, we can say that you cannot judge a book by its cover. On the other hand, we can judge a watermelon by its bark ;-)
