FAQs about orange flesh melons
You can instantly spot a spoiled orange flesh melon by its sickly appearance inside and out. If the fruit is whole, its soft spots and bruises will become increasingly prominent until the entire melon loses its shape. If you notice any liquid seeping through the rind or an unpleasant odor, it's time to toss that fruit in the trash.
When you get your orange flesh melons, it's best to store them uncut in the fridge. Despite their sturdy appearance, they are quite perishable. The crisper's high humidity keeps them from drying out, so if the whole fruit fits in this part of your fridge, keep it in there.
You can cut your fruit in half if needed. Leave the seeds in the center and cover each side tightly with a sheet of plastic wrap against the flesh. If you plan to section your melon into bite-size pieces, leave the rind on. It will help it stay fresh for up to three days.
Freezing is another excellent method for preserving orange flesh melons. You can ball, cube, or slice the fruit and place the pieces on a baking sheet to freeze overnight. Place the frozen bits in a zip-top freezer bag.
