Ingredients

• 1 whole (seedless, medium-sized) Watermelon

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the outside of the watermelon thoroughly under running water to clean the skin.

Step 2

Place the watermelon on a large, sturdy cutting board.

Step 3

Using a sharp chef's knife, carefully cut off both ends of the watermelon to create a flat surface for stability.

Step 4

Stand the watermelon upright on one of the flat ends.

Step 5

Slice the watermelon in half lengthwise, creating two equal halves.

Step 6

Take one half and place it cut-side down on the cutting board for easier handling.

Step 7

Slice the half lengthwise again into quarters, creating four long wedges from this portion of the watermelon.

Step 8

Repeat with the other half to create a total of eight wedges.

Step 9

For smaller pieces, cut each wedge crosswise into two or three smaller triangles, depending on your preference.

Step 10

Arrange the watermelon wedges on a large platter or tray for serving.
