Ingredients for Corn Watermelon Salad For 2 people
Watermelon 300 g Sweet corn 1 ear Margarine 20 g Cilantro 5 g Salt 1 teaspoon
How to Choose Fresh Watermelon
- The red, sweet watermelons are usually ripe ones with small, wilted stems, a firm and shiny rind, with clear black stripes or brown spots on the body of the watermelon.
- You should choose those with a yellow or creamy bottom rind. Additionally, pay attention to whether the bottom is dented; the more it is, the sweeter the watermelon will be.
- If you feel that the weight of the watermelon is heavier than it looks, and it makes a “thud” sound when tapped, then it will definitely be a juicy watermelon.
- Avoid buying watermelons that are soft and mushy, with fresh green stems, or those that feel lighter than their appearance.
