All About Melons
From how to choose the best, to using melons in summer-fresh recipes
How to choose a ripe melon
Want to choose the best? Look for a symmetrical melon heavy for its size and free of blemishes or soft spots. Roll it around
and check for the couche (the spot where it rested on the ground while growing). It should be readily identifiable. Don't see one? The melon's not
yet mature. Last, find the spot where the stem was attached. Clean indentations should appear on melons that detached naturally
from the vine, like watermelons.
