I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed. The relish was too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try making it again with less sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of bitter melon, but this relish is actually really good! The sweetness of the sugar and the acidity of the vinegar help to balance out the bitterness of the melon. I'll definitely be making this again.
