The
Korean melon or chamoe (참외), following its Korean name, is a type of
melon primarily grown in Korea. The fruit is typically about half-foot (15 cm)
long and weighs slightly over 1 pound (0.45 kg). It is smooth and oblong, with
white stripes that run the length of the fruit. It has white flesh that is juicy
and sweet, and the seed cavity is filled with small white seeds. Although most
Korean melons marketed are yellow in color, there are variant cultivars of
green or ivory colors. The flavor has been described as a cross between a
honeydew melon and a cucumber. The fruits are usually eaten fresh; with its
thin rind and small seeds, the melon can be eaten whole.
The
Korean strawberries have a striking red hue, a shining appearance, and a more
conical shape. They have an arresting scent like fruit-flavored candy compared
to the muskier, more earthy scent of other strawberries. The taste is strong
and sweet, without lingering on the tongue. They are comparatively less moist
and thus crunchier.
We are joyous to serve
locals the taste of Korean Fruits, thanks to all that involved in this
successful sampling session and roadshow!
You
still can get these fruits in selective store, while it lasts.
