STEP 5:
Turn your cutting board 90 degrees and cut the watermelon across the other way, so you’ve created little squares across the entire surface of the fruit. It should look like a checkered pattern.
STEP 6:
Find a bowl that fits over your watermelon and place it over the chopped fruit. If there’s a little extra room on the sides, that’s okay; rather a slightly larger bowl than a too-small one. Lift your cutting board and keep the bowl firmly against it with your other hand. Quickly flip the board so the bowl is right side up.
Now you have sticks of perfectly cut watermelon that you can enjoy mess-free!
Bonus Tip: For a little unexpected flavor, try salting your watermelon. Juice a little lemon (or take a pinch of salt) and pour it over your watermelon. You’ll be floored by how deliciously the balance between the sweetness of the melon and tartness of the lemon work together.
