Transfer the cut pieces to a large mixing bowl. See note #5 below.

Using a chefs knife carefully cut off both ends. The end that had the stem may  need a second this slice removed from that end. See video for more details.

Cut the dragon fruit lengthwise.

Using your fingers peel the skin from the fruit and lay each half flat side down on the cutting board.

Using the chefs knife carefully trim any excess pink and discard.

Cut the halved dragon fruit in half again. Lay the 2 halves flat on the cutting board. Using the cookie cutter make shapes in the dragon fruit. See note #6 below. Set the stars aside on a plate. Add the stars to the salad after dressing and just before serving.
