How to choose delicious cantaloupe:
- Outer skin: A good cantaloupe will have prominent, clear stripes and a green color. Do not buy cantaloupe with damaged skin or turning black.
- Weight: If you plan to use it immediately, choose a cantaloupe with reasonable weight.
- Fragrance: A delicious cantaloupe will have a light, subtle scent similar to watermelon. Do not buy cantaloupe if you notice any unusual smell.
- Sound: Hold the cantaloupe, bring it close to your ear, and shake it gently. If you hear a sound inside, it means the cantaloupe is ripe and can be eaten right away.
Note:
- In addition to buying ready-made coconut milk in cans, you can make coconut milk at home.
- When buying, you should choose mature coconuts and avoid young coconuts. Young coconuts will yield less coconut milk and not be ideal.
