About This BITTER MELON is a climbing vine in the same family as cucumbers, melons, winter squash, and zucchinis. It produces plentiful green, ridged fruits with a complex, bitter flavor. THIS PROLIFIC VINE thrives with full sun, plenty of space, and something to climb on. Harvest the green fruit when it is about 8–12 inches long for the most manageable bitterness and a crisp texture. COMMONLY USED in Asian cuisine, bitter melon brings a unique flavor to stir-fries, curries, and soups. It is also a valued and beneficial ingredient in Ayurveda and Chinese medicine.
