Bitter Melon Soup and Sashimi Salad

Per H's idea, I stuffed the leftover bitter melons with a mixture of ground pork, shallots, and ginger, and plopped them into a soup. You can't really see them at all in the first picture, but the second picture shows the raw stuffed stage, almost like a pretty flower garden blooming with bitter melons. To go with the soup, we had a simple sashimi salad with scallops and seared salmon, both of which were deeelicious!
