I LOVE Halloween so I thought I’d share one of our favorite, macabre seasonal centerpieces: Watermelon Brain.

Observe the First Rule of the Kitchen: “No blood in the food.”

CAREFULLY slice a flat spot on the long side of a head-shaped melon. Using a potato peeler, peel the rest, aiming for a uniform light pink. Using the gouge at the end of the peeler, carve the gyri and sulci (ridges and dips) by cutting channels into the melon. Nest on a nice bed of kale.

Voila! Edible brains.
