Rockmelon can be eaten alone, or used in fruit salad. It is often wrapped in thinly sliced prosciutto.

Just one (100g) serve of rockmelon contains a dayâ??s allowance of Vitamin C, and they are a good source of beta carotene (which is converted to Vitamin A in the body). Look for a deep orange coloured flesh for a high level of beta carotene. Rockmelons also contain potassium, which may be important in maintaining a healthy blood pressure and kidney function, as well as muscle tone.

Rockmelons do not ripen after harvest, so they are ripe when you buy them.
