Not really furry don't worry.
Its just the melon thats furry on the outside. Its call hairy cucumber or chinese zucchini.
I got the idea from http://www.opensourcefood.com/people/yehting/recipes/pork-with-winter-melon-soup-/
Instead of using winter melon, we use hairy melon ( thats what i like to call it cuz its hairy outside) instead. We just found one in our fridge that needs to be use asap. Luckily we have 排骨 in our house thanks to my roommate's relatives.
I LOVE hairy melon soup. I remember my grandma would make it for me a lot a lot when she was alive. She taught me how to eat i guess a hairy melon at first ^^ Thank you grandma :D
We also add shiitake mushroom to make it very sweet ^^
Complete Recipe (we didnt use this recipe, we just use approximate cuz THATS how i cook lol)
-1 whole hairy melon , wash & cut into small pieces. (my grandma like BIG chunks cuz she's lazy , but I know a lot of people like little cubes. )
