There are a variety of ways to cut up a cantaloupe. Cut it in half, in quarters, or in eighths depending on your preference.
The easiest way to cut up the melon is by using a very sharp knife. Make sure you hold the fruit securely so that you don't damage your hands while cutting.
Many people look down on the melon because of its difficult peel. However, it is not as hard as it seems. It is very easy to remove the skin from a cantaloupe if you follow these simple steps:
Step 1: Cut the bottom off of the melon and remove any seeds or flesh inside. Tip: save these for later use in a smoothie or for baking recipes!
Step 2: Grab one side and give it a little twist so that it is easier to hold onto. This should separate one of the halves from the other half.
Step 3: Using your fingers, grab at least one more side and pull down, removing all of the skin.
