How to remove bitterness from bitter melon

　　Method 1: Remove the pulp from the melon

　　Cut the bitter melon into two pieces along the direction of the noodles on the bitter melon. After removing the seeds, remove the layer of white pulp close to the melon flesh, which can effectively remove part of the bitter taste.

　　Method 2: Chill

　　Chilling bitter melon with ice to below 8 degrees Celsius can reduce its bitter taste. Also slice the bitter melon and soak it in ice water for a while before taking it out, so that the bitterness can be reduced.

　　Method 3: Salting

　　Cut bitter melon can be marinated with salt for a while and then filtered to reduce the bitterness.

　　Method 4: Water bleaching

　　Cut open the bitter melon, remove the seeds, and cut it into strips, then rinse it with cold water, pinch it gently with your hands while washing it, wash it for a while, change the water, and then wash it again. Repeat this process three or four times, and the bitter juice will be lost with the water. After being fried in this way, the bitter melon tastes delicious, slightly bitter but sweet.

　　Method 5: Mix and stir-fry

　　Stir-fry bitter melon and chilies together to reduce the bitterness.

　　Wash and shred the bitter melon, heat the wok without adding oil, pour the shredded bitter melon (you can also add a little string beans) into the pan and stir-fry. If it is too dry, add a little water, stir-fry and set aside. If you are frying bitter gourd, stir-fry the shredded bitter gourd, mix well, add seasonings and serve. Add a small amount of sugar. If you like spicy food, you can fry the peppers before frying.
