Bitter Melon ( Pure White )

This unique Japanese bitter melon is a natural wonder with its pure white color and mellow flavor. It's almost like finding a pearl in the vegetable world! This variety is also less bitter compared to others, making it a great choice for those who find bitter melon too strong. Despite its mild flavor, it's still packed with nutrients and health benefits, which have been attributed to the long lifespan of the Okinawan people. As the fruit ripens, it develops a sweet red sac around the seeds that tastes like sweet cherry candy. The fruit is typically added to soups or shaved thin and eaten raw. With an average length of 8-10 inches, this variety is definitely one of the most superior bitter melons out there.
