When Ripe

A ripe Honeydew Melon has a sweet smell. If your melon does not smell sweet let it set on the counter to ripen for a few days.The honeydew that weigh about 2.2kg, have creamy yellow stem ends that is slightly soft when pressed, are bound to be the sweetest and best tasting. Avoid melons that are as hard as bowling balls because its flesh is also hard. The hardness is maybe because it is picked too early.
