The watermelon is a large, spherical fruit, sometimes slightly elongated, belonging to the Cucurbitaceae family. Its smooth, thick skin is generally dark green, mottled or striped with light green, while its bright red flesh is juicy, sweet and studded with small black seeds, although seedless varieties also exist. Refreshing and thirst-quenching thanks to its high water content (over 90%), it is particularly popular in summer for its mild flavour and crunchy texture. Originally from Africa, it is now grown in many hot regions of the world, and is a hydrating, low-calorie food, eaten raw, in juice, in fruit salads, or even as an accompaniment to savoury dishes in certain Mediterranean and Asian cuisines.
