Japanese Musk Melon from Vietnam

These elegantly packaged melons originated in Japan and are now grown exclusively in Vietnam, where prices are substantially lower. You can experience the deliciousness of a high quality Japanese muskmelon variety without paying a high price. The melon is surprisingly sweet, juicy and fragrant, similar to honey, but with a juicier texture that was more reminiscent of a soft melon.

STORAGE

At the blossom end of a ripe honeydew melon, it gives off a pleasant fragrance. Honeydew melons should be stored in the refrigerator. To keep the melon from drying out, shop it in a sealable container in the refrigerator after you have sliced or chopped it.

FUN FACTS & TIPS

To choose a good melon, examine its appearance. It should be well-proportioned and symmetrical, with no deformities, scratches, discolouration or imperfections, regardless of whether it has a netted surface. Then you will have a sweet and tasty melon. Also, the thicker and juicier the flesh, the heavier it feels.
