LENITH Dried Korean Bitter Melon Slices 0.55lb.

Appearance: When fresh, bitter melon is light to dark green in color, with a bumpy, warty exterior. Chinese bitter melon tends to be smoother and yellow-green, while Indian bitter melon is more bumpy and darker green.

Flavor: The taste of bitter melon is extremely bitter and dry.

Culinary uses: Bitter melon is commonly used in Indian and Southeast Asian cooking, where it is combined with sweet, spicy, and savory flavors. By adding a few slices to broths, soups, stews, and curries, you can incorporate the bitterness into your diet without overpowering your taste buds.

How to Use Dried Slices: A typical serving size is 6-10 slices. Boil the slices in approximately 3 cups (700mL) of water for 10 minutes. The water can be saved to make tea, which can be sweetened according to your preference. Rehydrate the slices and use them in dishes such as omelets, frittatas, scrambled eggs, curries, salads, soups, salsas, stir-fries, and sautés.

For a unique twist, finely mince some rehydrated bitter melon and add it to guacamole, onion dip, bean dip, hummus, or any other dip.
