Just watching the African Horned Melons (Cucumis metuliferus) as they ripen. First they turn yellow; and then more of a bright orange colour. The best time to eat is once the skin is bright orange and the jelly sacs that contain the seeds go a nice chlorophyll green colour. The greener the jelly sacs, the nicer the flavour--as they slide down one's gullet! lol Nice flavoured fruit, then, with some citrus tang. Delicious served with plain vanilla ice cream. Also try as a pavlova meringue topping or with whipped cream and sugar. Very nice fruit indeed! And doesn't get Queensland fruit fly!
