Summer simply wouldn’t be the same without watermelon, but no matter how much you like it, it’s highly unlikely you can eat it all in a single sitting. If you’re struggling to eat a whole watermelon and want to find a perfect way to store it, these are your best options.
Small Pieces
If you like cutting your watermelon into smaller pieces before eating it, you should also consider storing it this way, especially if you have a pretty small fridge. You can place your slices into an airtight container and refrigerate them for up to three to four days.
Large Pieces
If you think that watermelon losses its sweetness after being cut into smaller slices, you probably prefer cutting it into halves or quarters. You can also store it this way if your fridge is large enough, just make sure to put some plastic wrap on top so it won’t pick up odors.
Freezing Watermelon
Watermelon won’t be in season for too long, but what if you want to eat it once the summer is over? You can freeze smaller slices and use them to make smoothies, ice cream, and popsicles, but keep in mind they’ll be too soft and mushy to be eaten after being defrosted.
