Winter melon is an indispensable vegetable for many Chinese families. As its name suggests, winter melon can be stored for months and is primarily consumed during wintertime, when there is less variety of fresh veggies available at the market. In the steamed bun post, I mentioned that Chinese cabbage was one of the only veggies around 30 years ago, before greenhouse-grown veggies became available during winter months. Winter melon is the second most important one.
Winter melon can grow into a very big fruit, measuring over 15 inches in diameter and weighing in excess of thirty pounds. At the supermarket, you're most likely to see them sold by the slice due to their extreme size. Although it's called winter melon, it's actually a summer vegetable. It is a type of fruit, but when mature, the fresh melon doesn't taste sweet. It is mildly flavored, and has a similar texture to that of a watermelon. It's typically used for cooking savory dishes, including soups and stews, with other flavorful spices. The white fresh part will turn very soft and absorb flavor easily as it's cooked.
