After learning how to reduce the bitterness of bitter melon, I used that trick to make this recipe .

By coating the bitter melon in katakuriko, then parboiling it, it coats the bitter melon and reduces the sense of bitterness. Slice the bitter melon thinly into 2 to 3 mm thick pieces.
Note: If a whole bitter melon seems like too much, after parboiling the bitter melon, drain it well, then freeze the unused portion. Recipe by Satosan
