It is better to dig out the melon core when we cook dishes, because the melon core does not taste very good when used for cooking. If the chayote you buy is very tender and the core has not yet formed, you don't have to remove the core.

After peeling, the chayote will secrete a sticky substance, so be careful when peeling and removing the core. It is best to place it under running water and rinse it while doing so to prevent the chayote from slipping and avoid being cut by the knife.

The mucus secreted by chayote is a resin. After it adheres to the skin, it absorbs moisture from the skin, causing dry skin or local peeling. Therefore, wash your hands as soon as possible after cutting the chayote.
