Winter melon (also known as fuzzy melon, white gourd, wax guard, Chinese preserving melon, dong gua, or ash gourd) is an incredibly versatile fruit. It is such a mild-tasting fruit that, in many Asian cuisines, it's often used more like a vegetable! The white rind can be eaten raw, but it's commonly used to make winter melon soup and stir-fries. The name "winter melon" that is sometimes given to this plant is based on the Chinese name dōngguā ( 冬瓜 ); however, the character 瓜 ( guā) can also mean "gourd" or "squash". [9] It is likely that the name "melon" is given because this gourd is sometimes candied or made into a sweet tea. The recipe is simple and easy to follow without needing culinary skills. You just need to make sure you follow the right measurements for the ingredients. Chop the 800g winter melon into small chunks or cubes. In a bowl, mix the winter melon chunks with 220g of brown sugar. Stir well and set aside for 2 hours. The winter melon is a member of the gourd family and shares a similar lineage to cucumber, zucchini, and pumpkin. It looks almost like an albino watermelon, with light green skin and bland white flesh. You often find it growing in warmer climates in Asia, although they're starting to cultivate closer to home in southern Florida. Credit: Global Kitchen Travels.
