Let me know if you would like a nice sweet and spicy curry recipe with those bitter melons.

Visiting my folks in South Florida this weekend. Just harvested some mangos and lychees! (Squirrels didn't get them all). Had to watch out for the honeybees on the ground drinking the juice from fallen fruit. (I sure would love to try that honey)

The Nepalese refugees gardening at our community gardens gave me a bag of these last year and I didn't know what they were or what to do with them! Some of them had black seeds so sharp you could have cut yourself with them!

They are really an acquired taste and super healthy (and yes bitter). Simplest way to use them is to cook them with scrambled eggs. They are delicious stuffed too. Hope you get to try them again! :)

Bitter acquired taste isn't enough to go on for me. People say this about both coffee and Vegemite and the latter is much less likely to be acquired by someone who didn't grow up on it.

If I recall (and understood) correctly, she did say she cooked them with onion and potato and egg.
 
Here is my quilquiña plant. The plant grows to well over 7' tall by the end of the season. The leaves have a VERY strong, and a super unique flavor and aroma. It is all around a great herb, and the plant gets absolutely massive.
