Zerbinati Pigmentato Melon: A Seasonal Italian Delight!
The Zerbinati Pigmentato melon, an exquisite summer fruit, is known for its extreme fragrance and delightful sweetness. This unique melon variety boasts a vibrant, deep orange flesh that is both visually stunning and incredibly flavourful. The texture is succulent and juicy, providing a refreshing burst with every bite. Sourced exclusively from the renowned Zerbinati family in Northern Italy, these melons are available only from late May to July.
Zerbinati Pigmentato Melon Cooking Suggestions
Grilling: Lightly brush with olive oil and grill for a few minutes to enhance its natural sweetness and add a smoky flavour.
Roasting: Slice and roast with a drizzle of honey for a caramelised, intensified sweetness.
Blending: Blend into a chilled melon soup or smoothie for a refreshing treat.
Baking: Incorporate into baked goods like muffins or cakes for a unique fruity twist.
Salad: Dice and toss with fresh greens and a light vinaigrette for a refreshing salad.
Zerbinati Pigmentato Melon Serving Suggestions
Italian Parma ham: The traditional way, balancing the melon’s sweetness with the ham’s savoury notes.
Fresh mozzarella or burrata: Creamy cheeses that enhance the melon’s sweetness and add a luxurious texture.
Mint and lime: Fresh mint leaves and a squeeze of lime juice for a refreshing, zesty contrast.
Prosciutto-wrapped melon balls: A simple and elegant appetiser.
Arugula and balsamic reduction: Adds a peppery and tangy contrast to the sweet melon.
White wine or Prosecco: Light, crisp wines that complement the melon’s sweetness and aromatic profile.
