About Melon balls, frozen
Muskmelon (Cucumis melo) is the sweet, fragrant melon group that includes the netted-skin cantaloupe and the smooth, pale honeydew, along with aromatic types like the French Charentais and the Galia. Prized for its perfumed aroma and juicy orange or green flesh, it is a refreshing warm-weather favorite. Muskmelon is mostly water, so it is low in calories while delivering vitamin C, vitamin A, and potassium, and the orange-fleshed cantaloupe is especially rich in the antioxidant beta-carotene.
It is eaten chilled in wedges, scooped into fruit salads, blended into smoothies and agua fresca, and classically wrapped in a ribbon of prosciutto. A ripe melon smells sweet and floral at the stem end and gives slightly to gentle pressure there. Always scrub the rind well before slicing, since cutting through an unwashed surface can carry bacteria into the flesh. Once cut, store the pieces covered in the refrigerator, and enjoy them within a few days while the fragrance and juice are at their peak.
