Bitter melon in Brine

Bitter melon, a unique vegetable resembling a small, wrinkled cucumber, is known for its distinctively bitter taste and nutritional value. Available in canned juice form on our webshop, this special vegetable offers a rich source of essential nutrients and is reputed to naturally support blood sugar levels.

To soften its bitterness, bitter melon is often rubbed with salt and left to rest for an hour, after which the salt is rinsed off. The edible green skin retains its characteristic taste, while the spongy interior and seeds are removed before cooking. Over time, the vegetable ripens and becomes more bitter, with a yellowish skin and reddening seeds.

Due to its unique taste, challenging to replace with other ingredients, bitter melon is a sought-after vegetable in Asian cuisine. In addition to fresh and frozen varieties, you can now enjoy the versatility of bitter melon in juice, conveniently and flavorfully preserved in a can.
