Question of the Week - Favorite ways to use Watermellon

[Guest guest]

I buy any type I see and I cut a big chunk and stand at the sink with watermelon

in one hand and the salt shaker in the other. It's divine dahlink! Donna

Question of the Week - Favorite ways to use

Watermellon

 

 

What are some of your favorite ways to use Watermellon? Do you buy seeded

or seedless, yellow or red Watermellon?

 

I personally only buy Red seedless watermellon now......I just love no seeds

with every delicious bite. What a great invention!

 

This morning on the CBS " The Early Show " , I saw some interesting new ideas

on ways to prepare this. I thought you might

find some ideas here you wanted to try.

It's also good in the blender with a little crushed ice and a bit of green tea.

I do it Donna's way, but omit the salt shaker and have a second big chunk in the

other hand.

I don't think I've seen a yellow watermelon. I prefer the seedless, but they

are usually too expensive. If the watermelon doesn't just get eaten out of

hand, I'll put some in smoothies. Amy

The seeded and seedles in our area, are the same price usually, so I always opt

for the seedless.

 

I usually just eat it cut up in chunks in a bowl, fruit salad or occasionlly

pureed in lemonade or a smoothie.

 

Yummmmmm. such great food just the way it is isn't it.

I am reminded of the watermellon boats that my precious grandmother

created for us. Filled with watermellon balls all ready to eat. At my

daughter's wedding a relative created a watermellon whale and filled

it with melon balls. I like to eat watermelon by the slice, outside

so I can join in on the watermelon seed spitting contests. It's the

only accepted fruit that one is allowed to let the juice run down

your chin. LOL

If you buy seedless, then what will you have to spit at your little brother?

Naw, gotta have

seeds--and the more the better!

Eating it with a little salt sprinkled on it is my most usual way,

but lately I have put chunks in the juicer and mixed it with other

less juicy fruits/veggies. It tastes great with kale for example.

Red, yellow, seeds, no seeds, it is all good and it tastes of summer!

I saw this recipe on the food network and wanted to rush out and buy several

watermelons.

Drunken Watermelon Recipe courtesy Sandra Lee

Show: Semi-Homemade Cooking with Sandra Lee

Episode: Spicy Sports Spread

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4 pound seedless watermelon

2 cups tequila

1 cup triple sec

Lemon-lime soda (recommended: Sprite)

With a knife, shave off the stem end of the watermelon, just enough so that

it sits flat. Cut the top off the watermelon, about 3 inches down. Scoop out

half of the watermelon with a melon baller and set aside

Scoop out remaining watermelon, leaving the rind-bowl. This will be your

punch bowl. Transfer scooped out melon (not the melon balls) to a blender

and puree; may be done in batches. Push watermelon puree through a strainer

to remove pulp and any seeds. Return watermelon water to the watermelon

punch bowl. Stir in tequila, triple sec, and melon balls. Top off with

lemon-lime soda. Serve cold over ice.

Wow, I can't believe I'd forgotten about those! My mom used to make

those for birthday parties, etc., when I was a kid--So pretty and

yummy! Thank you for stirring up those memories, Deanna!! (And I just

love the idea of a watermelon whale.)

 

I love watermelon, but for some reason the yellow ones we've gotten this

year have been especially delicious. We've been starting the day with

bowls of cantaloupe and watermelon chunks for breakfast this summer--Yum!

 

Peace,

Maureen

My supermarket has packages of pre-cut melon chunks. The watermelon is

the cheapest. I've been having a small bowl of chunks in mid-afternoons

on warm days and feeling refreshed. Oh, my guinea pig says watermelon

is the best melon and I must share a piece with him or he will WHEEEEK

at the top of his lungs and take offense. I don't need that kind of

pain, so I share. :-)

 

I might have to get an actual melon again and try out some new recipes.

We buy red seeded watermelon. We just slice it and eat it like that!

I love watermelon just the way it comes. I slice a piece off of the melon

and put it on a plate. I then salt it and eat it with a fork. I will eat

either type, but the one with the seeds has a better taste and more juice,

in my opinion.
