Casaba

Casabas have a wrinkled hard shell and flattened round shape. The interior of a Casaba has a white tender flesh and a juicy subtle sweetness. To find a ripe Casaba, look for a bright yellow color all the way around the fruit.

Ripeness

If the melon gives under slight pressure, and gives off a sugary aroma, the melon is ripe and ready to eat.

Cleaning

Melons are grown on the ground, so the outside should be cleaned before cutting. Run cool water over the melon before eating to remove any surface dirt that may remain.

Storage

Our melons are picked vine-ripened so they should immediately be stored in a refrigerator. Cover cut melons with plastic and store no more than three days.
