Ocado Honeydew Melon.
Honeydew melons are typically large, round to slightly oval in shape, and when ripe, the rind is smooth, firm, and has a creamy yellow or light green colour. It should feel slightly waxy and may even become a bit sticky as it fully ripens. The flesh is typically a beautiful pale green colour, though some varieties can have golden-orange flesh. It's dense, juicy, and succulent, with a central cavity containing white, oval seeds.
Honeydew melons offer a delicately sweet flavour with notes of honey. Some ripe honeydew melons can have faint floral or almost vanilla-like undertones. It has a very clean, mild taste and their juicy, succulent texture is incredibly refreshing, especially on a warm day.
Honeydew melons are versatile and perfect for a variety of fresh and light eating occasions. Enjoy as a refreshing snack by simply slicing it in half, scooping out the seeds, and eating it as is with a spoon.
Add chunks to yoghurt, cottage cheese, granola, or serve simply alongside eggs or toast for a light start to the day. Blend the flesh into smoothies, shakes, or fruit juices and use as the base of sorbets, granitas, or as a topping for panna cotta or ice cream.
The sweetness of honeydew melon pairs beautifully with salty and tangy flavours, making it excellent in prosciutto, cured meats or cheese platters. Cubed or balled, it adds a sweet, juicy element to savoury salads with ingredients like rocket, mint, balsamic glaze, and olives. Dice into a refreshing salsa with red onion, jalapeño, coriander, and lime juice, perfect for grilled fish or chicken. It can also be used as the base for chilled, refreshing summer soups, sometimes blended with cucumber or mint.
