Aug 27, 2009 - in Vietnam, first day of our lunar new year, we have bitter melon soup with stew pork meat, as a reminder of the bitterness (from the bitter melon soup) from the past and prepare for a richer and better new year (from the stew pork meat, it tastes very rich :-D)

hoahoe Says:

Aug 27, 2009 - my Mom always choose the younger bitter melon ones over the old ones as it get more bitter when it grows older, she also places it in cold salt water for 10 mins to reduce the bitterness. for me this soup is forever a sweet and beautiful memory :-D

Oct 14, 2009 - Is it true not good for pregnant woman? I ate it once...

jingabobo Says:

Oct 14, 2009 - well nothing if eaten once can really have any profound impact, so you're fine don't worry! just don't include it in your regular diet if you are pregnant..also avoid papaya..
