- Look for shiny skin and a firm feel, so the seeds will be small. Don't buy if they are wrinkly and dull.
- If left too long in a fruit bowl or the fridge the seeds will become bigger and the flavour bitter.
- Salting is not essential, but it does increase the intensity of flavour.
- When barbecuing, don't worry if they start to go wrinkly. Prick them to allow the smoky flavour to get right through.
