Botanical Name: Momordica charantia
Country of Origin: India
Common Name: Bitter Melon
English Name: Bitter Gourd
Sanskrit Name: Karela
Hindi Name: Karela, Karle
Also Known As: Bitter Melon Cut & Sifted, Bitter Gourd C/S, Momordica charantia C/S
Part Used: Dried fruit of Momordica charantia, cut and sifted
Description: Bitter Melon C/S is produced from the dried fruits of Momordica charantia, a tropical vine native to Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean. The fruits are harvested when fully mature, carefully cleaned to remove natural debris, and dried to maintain their natural green colour and textured surface. Once dried, the fruits are cut into uniform pieces and sifted to produce a consistent botanical material suitable for decorative, craft, and formulation uses.
Momordica charantia produces elongated, warty fruits with a fibrous interior. When cut and sifted, the fruit retains its natural structure, texture, and subtle green hue. The cut-and-sifted form provides manageable pieces that blend easily into botanical mixtures, visual craft projects, and educational displays.
Fresh fruits are washed, dried using controlled warm-air or low-temperature methods to reduce moisture, and mechanically cut and sifted to remove dust. No additives, fillers, or processing agents are used, resulting in a pure plant-based ingredient composed solely of dried fruit pieces.
Uses: Bitter Melon C/S is used in botanical craft projects, decorative jar displays, resin art, potpourri-style preparations, and educational herb kits. Its fibrous texture, natural green tones, and uniform cut make it suitable for creative projects that require intact plant material.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
