Watery Watermelon!!!!

As summers are here Watermelons are available .These thirst -quenching melons are the great source of much needed water and electrolytes to beat the tropical summer temperatures. The natural sweetness of watermelon makes it  perfect for  salad, salsa, or cool drink.  Chunks of sweet watermelon can also be used  with fruit flavored sherbets or sorbets. Always choose firm, symmetrical, fruit free of cracks, bruises, soft spots or mold. There should be a melon like smell or fragrance. Avoid watermelons that are very hard, white or very pale green in color on the underside, indicating immaturity. An immature watermelon will be slightly acidic.
