Storage Tips

  • Proper storage helps maintain the freshness and flavor of smooth melons:
  • • Whole, Uncut Melon: Store whole, uncut smooth melons at room temperature for up to
  • 2-4 days to allow them to ripen further and develop their full flavor. Once ripe, they can
  • be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • • Cut Melon: Once cut, smooth melon should be stored in an airtight container in the
  • refrigerator. It will typically last for 3-5 days. The cut surfaces should be covered to
  • prevent drying out and absorbing odors from other foods.
  • • Freezing: While fresh is best, smooth melon can be frozen for use in smoothies or
  • purees. Cube the melon, spread in a single layer on a baking sheet, freeze until solid,
  • then transfer to an airtight freezer bag or container. Frozen melon is best used within 6
  • months.
