Simmered and Chilled Winter Melon for Summertime
- 1/4 Winter melon
- 400 to 500 ml Water
- 1 to 2 teaspoons Dashi stock granules
- 1 roughly 1 teaspoon Soy sauce
- 1 roughly 1/2 to 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 thumbtip-sized piece Finely julienned ginger
- Remove seeds and fiber from the winter melon.
- Peel and chop into bite-sized pieces.
- In a large saucepan, add enough water to cover the winter melon pieces and the seasonings.
- Add the winter melon pieces and simmer until soft.
- Set aside.
- When the pieces have slightly cooled down, chill in the fridge.
- Top with finely julienned ginger right before serving.
- You can actually eat winter melon with the skin on.
- I thought it might be nice to keep some of the skin, so that's what I did.
