What is bitter melon (Momordica charantia)?

In this country, bitter melon is still considered something of an insider tip. In its countries of origin, China and India, the plant has long been known and is valued in various nutritional traditions.
The herbaceous climbing plant contains interesting natural components and also stands out because of its appearance. On shoots up to five metres long, bitter melon forms bright yellow flowers with a delicate vanilla scent. The female flowers develop cucumber-like fruits with a wart-like surface over the summer. When ripe, the fruits open and reveal the red pulp.
