Have you ever come across an absolutely not sweet watermelon? Here's an easy way to fix it.

Steps

1. 1 Cut off a piece of watermelon.
2. 2 Take a pinch salt (not sugar).
3. 3 Sprinkle a piece of watermelon with salt. This works because salt in small amounts enhances the sweetness, which is why salt can sometimes be found in the ingredient list for sweet recipes, such as desserts.

Tips

• For best results, use French gray sea salt from a salt shaker and slowly salt each slice of watermelon.
• Sprinkle salt over the whole piece, when you bite it, you will not taste the salt.
• Try good quality soy sauce. Pour some sauce into a bowl, cut a small piece of watermelon, dip a corner of the piece into the sauce. This will add salt to enhance the sweetness and an interesting aroma. Don't use too much sauce or the soy flavor will prevail over the watermelon flavor.
• Remember to wash the watermelon before cutting. Typically, watermelons are harvested in the field and transported in open trucks.
• Many watermelon sellers will cut you a slice of watermelon to sample, just ask.

Warnings

• Take a pinch of salt, rub your fingers to shake off excess salt.
• Too much salt, or the watermelon will be salty.
