How to convert a lambda expression into a method reference?

Question

Java

import static java.util.stream.Collectors.joining;
import static java.util.stream.Stream.of;

public String makeSomething(String text) {
        return of(text.split(" "))
                .map(f -> myMethod(f))
                .collect(joining(" "));
    }

At the same time, there is a method: private String myMethod(String word) .

Answer 1

this::myMethod
I don't remember if it's possible in Java to omit this at this point.
