How beautiful to cut a watermelon to the table
Surely, almost every person associates the taste of summer with sweet and juicy watermelons. Of course, you can eat watermelon just with a spoon. But if we talk about any event, then I want to be creative and interesting when cutting a watermelon. Therefore, in this article I share the best ways to celebrate watermelon slicing.
"Birdie"
Cut half the berries into four equal slices. Cut the outermost piece of watermelon from each slice in a triangular shape (this piece will then make the head of the "bird"). Then make a neat cut along the crust. This will allow you to separate the watermelon flesh from the rind. Divide the flesh into equal slices using cross-sectional slices. Cut out the tail, pupils and feathers of the future "bird" from pieces of watermelon rind. Secure these parts with toothpicks for strength. To add realism, you can attach a dry carnation to each eye. Finally, push the watermelon slices apart in opposite directions.
"Watermelon slices"
Cut the berry lengthwise into four equal parts. After that, make a cross-cut to separate the crust from the pulp. Divide the resulting pieces into two equal parts. Arrange the resulting pieces in two rows, as shown in the picture. This is a very quick and at the same time original way of festive cutting of berries, which is suitable for any event!
Watermelon "Eskimo"
Cut the berry into two equal pieces. Using a knife, cut the resulting halves into approximately equal triangles. In the middle of each piece, form a groove in the center. In these grooves you will need to insert popsicle sticks, which can be found in any store. Done! You can enjoy the popsicle ice cream!
Watermelon "Surprise"
This slicing will require two watermelons of equal size. Remove the crust and light flesh from one of them. Sand the surface of the berry using wet wipes to make it completely smooth. Divide the second berry into two parts. Remove the pulp from them. Cover the first berry with the resulting crust. Done, you can serve your guests a real surprise!
There is no time for unusual cutting of watermelon, but you want to do it as beautifully as possible? Use the following simple and practical tips:
- Add a skewer or toothpick to each piece of watermelon. It will be not only beautiful, but also convenient.
- Serve the watermelon with other berries or fruits for a beautiful decoration.
- Serve sliced watermelon in colorful bowls.
Observing such details will certainly give even the most ordinary pieces of watermelon a bright and festive look!
Bon Appetit!
