For 3 years in a row we have been enjoying aromatic, sweet, tasty melon in winter. All friends now do this too, because somehow in winter they tried a melon with us and immediately asked to share the recipe. Every New Year we have a delicious melon on our table. I am sure you will also be interested in this method. It is very simple, many people know it, but some people do not even realize that "this" also works with melon!
I have prepared for you a short video instruction on how to preserve melon for the winter:
Step-by-step method of harvesting melon for the winter with a photo:
Immediately on what you should pay attention: melon must be sweet. The sweeter it is, the tastier it is in winter. I recommend buying a torpedo melon - Uzbek melon. As for me, they are the sweetest, juiciest and tastiest. But a variety like "Kolkhoznitsa" is also suitable. This year I will be harvesting two different varieties.
The melon should be peeled from the peel and seeds, cut into portions "for one bite". You can use a cube, triangles. As you like best.
I put the melon in food containers. No need to tamp, otherwise the whole melon can be crushed. We don't need mashed potatoes... By the way, cups of sour cream, yogurt, etc. are perfect.
I transfer the containers to the freezer. Freezing melons is a great way to preserve them throughout the winter.
How to use frozen melon correctly?
Melon can be thawed slightly and eaten like ice cream. This is delicious! Like both adults and children.
You can also completely defrost the melon, as for me, the taste practically does not change, I am silent about the aroma... .. It is so strong that you want it - you don’t want it, and summer is immediately remembered!
Here is an almost completely thawed melon, can you distinguish it from freshly sliced fresh?
You can make mashed potatoes from frozen melons.
But we always put it on the New Year's table... All guests immediately "grab it" and I hear: "mmmmm... .." Someone asks, and how did we manage to buy such a fragrant, tasty melon in winter... And then I share with them this wonderful way of harvesting melons.
I am sure you will appreciate this method!
I also freeze bananas and make great sugar-free ice cream out of them in 1 minute, but more on that in the next article ...
