Clever Fruit Serving Ideas


How to Keep Apples From Browing?

One of the easiest things you can do to prevent browning is to submerge the cut fruit in plain water, which reduces the amount of air, and therefore oxygen, that can get to it. Lemon contains ascorbic acid, which not only lowers pH but can also reverse the oxidation reaction through a process chemists call reduction. Lemon juice helps a bit, but beware the more you add the more the taste will change.

How to Serve Watermelon?

Watermelon is a summertime staple that is loved by people of all ages. It’s refreshing, delicious, and packed with nutrients. However, cutting a watermelon can be a messy and challenging task, especially if you’re dealing with a large one. One solution to this problem is to cut the watermelon into square pieces instead of traditional wedges.

Cutting watermelon into square pieces not only looks aesthetically pleasing, but it also makes it easier to eat, especially for the youngest members of the family. The traditional method of cutting watermelon into wedges can be difficult for young children to handle, resulting in sticky hands and faces. Square pieces are easy to handle, and they can be popped into the mouth without the risk of juice running down the chin.

Another advantage of cutting watermelon into square pieces is that it’s quicker and more efficient. Traditional wedge-shaped slices require a certain level of precision, and it can be time-consuming to ensure that each slice is even. In contrast, square pieces can be cut quickly and with less precision, allowing you to serve up delicious watermelon in a fraction of the time.

Cutting watermelon into square pieces is also a great way to impress your guests at a summer barbecue or party. The uniformity of the squares looks neat and professional, and it’s a great conversation starter. Plus, it’s a great way to serve up watermelon to a large group of people quickly and efficiently.
