Instructions
Wash and clean Cantaloupe.
Place it over the cutting board.
Hint:
The ripen fruit leaves our juice while cutting, so be prepared to handle that excess oozing out fruit juice.
Use knife to cut them lengthwise into half.
Hint:
Cut though the stem mark.
Use large spoon to scoop out the seeds and the husk.
Discard the seeds or sun dry it for later use.
Then make about equal sized wedges. Hint: 6 wedges are good enough for a normal sized cantaloupe.
Now make multiple slits on each fruit wedges.
How to cut cantaloupes into cubes? Run the knife in between rind and the fruit to make the fruit pieces apart.
Collect them in the bowl and use it for your recipes.
