Sugar melon Cantalupe

Melons are much sought-after thirst quenchers. As a rule, they should be eaten fully ripe and cool. To eat them raw, cut them in half, remove the seeds with a spoon, cut them into segments and serve them with a knife and fork. Melons can be served as an appetiser or dessert, but they also go well with poultry, crab or crayfish salad, fruit salad, ice cream or sorbet.
