Canary melon is a bright yellow-skinned melon with pale ivory flesh and a flavor that is mildly sweet with hints of tanginess. Its name comes from its canary-like vibrant color. The texture is firm and juicy, making it ideal for fresh eating, fruit platters, or pairing with savory ingredients like prosciutto or cheese. Canary melons are a refreshing and hydrating option, especially popular in summer markets.
