Watermelon is a refreshing and hydrating fruit, characterized by its smooth, thick green rind often featuring mottled stripes. The vibrant pink to red flesh is juicy, crisp, and subtly sweet, making it a popular choice for summer. This large melon is primarily composed of water (about 92%), offering a light and thirst-quenching experience. Watermelon seeds are typically black or white (depending on the variety) and can be either edible or require removal. Looking for a delicious and healthy summer snack?

A whole watermelon should be stored at room temperature until cut. Once cut, wrap tightly in plastic wrap or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain its freshness and prevent it from absorbing odors. Properly stored cut watermelon will last for about 3-5 days in the refrigerator. For longer storage, watermelon can be cubed and frozen in a single layer on a baking sheet before transferring to a freezer bag or container. Frozen watermelon is best used in smoothies or frozen desserts.
