Musk Melon

Muskmelon, Cucumis melo is a species of melon that has evolved, through breeding, into a variety of the melons now grown worldwide.  It originated in Northwestern India, thereby qualifying it as tropical, and from there was taken to China and Europe. 

A vine-growing plant, it is related to the cucumber family. Melons are considered an accessory fruit or epigynous berry, though it’s a little difficult to imagine a large honeydew melon as a berry.  Because most melons were developed north of the tropics, we will only mention that they began in the tropics and were developed elsewhere.

I was given a small bottle of Rain’s Choice in a gift basket and I have been hooked ever since. The flavor makes all of my baking so much better! I will never use grocery store vanilla again!
