winter melon

This large, frost-green muskmelon can weigh up to 30 pounds and resembles a huge honeydew. The porous flesh is snowy white and has a flavor reminiscent of zucchini. Winter melon is available year-round in Chinese markets and specialty produce stores. It should be cooked briefly and is popular in stir-fry dishes as well as various Asian soups, especially winter melon soup, which is classically served in a scooped-out winter-melon shell. See also melon.
