Winter melon, scientifically called Benincasa hispida, is also commonly called the wax gourd, the ash gourd, white gourd, and the winter gourd. Its seasonal name probably comes from the fact that while grown during the summer and autumn, it can be stored and eaten during the winter months. Mature winter melon has a very mild taste, while the immature fruit is sweet. Winter melon is a large fruit grown in warm climates that can grow beyond one foot long and weigh over 40 pounds. It resembles a large watermelon with its oblong shape and dark-green, waxy skin. Unlike a watermelon, the inside of the flesh and seeds are white, it is tasteless, and it cannot be eaten raw. When it is immature, the outside of the fruit is fuzzy. Once it matures, it loses its hair and gets a waxy coating. Cubed or sliced, winter melon can be steamed, simmered, braised, or parboiled and added to stir-fries. Best used in soups, you can season this rather mild and bland melon with strong spices and herbs. Winter melon is suitable for pickling and may be diced and candied. Whole winter melons will keep in a cool place for months and likely up to a year.
