How To Choose A Great Watermelon!

If you don't grow your own watermelon and instead buy them at the grocery store or the farmer's market, here are some things to look for that will assure you get the sweetest, juiciest, and best-textured melon! Rounded melons tend to be the sweetest. The melon should feel a bit heavy for its size, and have a soft sheen to it in the light. Ultra-shiny melons are likely not ripe - so not very sweet. The field spot - that light area on the melon that sat on the ground in the field - should be either deep yellow or orange. This indicates field ripening - where the most sugar is produced. Lastly, the sound of the melon when you rap your knuckles on it will tell a story as well. A low, hollow sound indicates ripeness, as well as plenty of moisture in the melon, which is a sign of juiciness. If the melon "rings" high or sounds "tight", it is unlikely it is ripe, sweet, and juicy.
