🍉 How to Choose the Perfect Watermelon: Simple Expert Tips
Whether you’re buying for your grocery shop, restaurant, juice bar or catering business, here’s how to spot a watermelon that’s worth every slice:
- Look for the Field Spot
That yellow patch on the skin? It’s called a field spot. The deeper and more golden it is, the longer the watermelon ripened on the vine. That usually means more flavour. - Give It a Tap
A good watermelon will make a deep, hollow sound when you knock on it. This means it’s full of water and ripe inside. - Check the Sugar Spots and Webbing
Brownish rough patches or web-like scars are signs of sweetness. They show where sugar has seeped through the skin. - Pick It Up
Watermelons should feel heavy for their size. The heavier, the juicier. - Go for Dull, Not Shiny
Shiny skin can mean the fruit is underripe. A dull, matte rind is what you want.
🍉 Fun Facts About Watermelon
- Watermelons are about 92% water, making them the ultimate refreshing fruit.
- They were first cultivated in Africa more than 5,000 years ago.
- There are over 1,200 types of watermelon grown around the world.
- Yellow and orange watermelons are naturally sweet varieties that surprise and delight.
- Even the rind is edible — in some cuisines, it’s pickled or used in stir-fries!
