MELONS WITH GINGER SYRUP



Melons with Ginger Syrup image

Melons, mint, and a fresh ginger syrup are delicious complements in this fruit salad. Cutting the melons in large cubes enhances their big, juicy flavor. For this salad, I like to use a combination of four melons, choosing from cantaloupe, honeydew, Santa Claus, Persian, casaba, or seedless watermelon.

Categories     Dessert

Yield Yields 1/3 cup syrup.

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/4 cup granulated sugar
3-1/2-inch-long piece fresh ginger (1 inch wide), peeled and very thinly sliced
8 cups mixed 3/4-inch melon cubes (from 5 to 8 lb. melon)
Leaves from 5 sprigs mint (small leaves left whole; larger leaves sliced into thin strips)

Steps:

  • Combine the sugar with 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves. Add the ginger and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 7 minutes to let the ginger infuse. Strain through a fine sieve, let cool, and refrigerate until completely chilled.
  • Just before serving, mix the melon cubes in a large serving bowl and pour on just enough of the ginger syrup to lightly coat the melons, about 1/4 cup. Toss with the mint leaves.

MELON AND GINGER SOUP



Melon and Ginger Soup image

Reserve melons that are so ripe, sweet and juicy that they practically fall apart when you cut them for this soup, which is inspired by a recipe by Deborah Madison. Smell the melons when you shop for them at the market; they should make you want to close your eyes and drink in their fragrance. If they're not really sweet, the soup will be bland. Both cantaloupe and honeydew are great sources of potassium and vitamin A.

Categories     easy, soups and stews, dessert

Time 1h10m

Yield serves four to six

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 very ripe melons, either orange-fleshed or green, about 5 pounds, halved, seeds discarded
2 teaspoons finely chopped or grated lime zest
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lime juice
Pinch of salt
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 to 2 teaspoons ginger juice (see note), to taste
1 tablespoon agave syrup (optional)
Chopped fresh mint (about 1 tablespoon)

Steps:

  • Cut the whole melon into 8 wedges and the half into 4, and set aside two of the wedges. Remove the remaining melon from the rinds, and chop coarsely. Puree until smooth in a blender or a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Transfer to a bowl and whisk in the lime zest and 1 tablespoon of the lime juice, the salt, buttermilk, 1 teaspoon of the ginger juice, and the agave syrup. Taste and add the remaining ginger juice if desired. Cut the remaining wedges of melon into very small dice and place in a separate bowl. Chill the soup and diced melon for at least 1 hour.
  • Just before serving, toss the diced melon with the mint and remaining lime juice. Ladle the soup into bowls, top with the melon and mint, and serve.

MELON WITH GINGER



Melon With Ginger image

Refreshing, but with a slight kick. I made this up for a potluck based upon ingredients I had at home. Use a mild honey so as not to overwhelm the melon. If you like, add more or no blueberries. Feel free to add more sauce and change the ratio of ingredients to your taste.

GINGER LIME MELON BALLS



Ginger Lime Melon Balls image

I was looking for an easy, cool, summer fruit appetizer for my August wedding reception. My family made all the food for 100 guests by ourselves, so I needed something easy yet memorable. I found this recipe on a "melon web-site", AICR. It was so simple and after doing a tasting of 3 different recipes, this one was the clear favorite. If you've never used crystallized ginger, you should be able to find it in the bulk food section with dried fruits. It is NOT fresh ginger, it's like a soft, sugared, candy. You can't mince it too fine because it gets pretty sticky as you cut it. You can use any kind of ripe melon in season, but I like honeydew and cantaloupe best. Perfect for a picnic, summer brunch or a DIY wedding reception! Enjoy!

Categories     Melons

Time 20m

Yield 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon minced crystallized ginger
1/2 teaspoon grated fresh lime zest
4 cups melon balls (I like to mix honeydew and cantaloupe)
4 sprigs of fresh mint (garnish)

Steps:

  • In small saucepan, combine juice, water, ginger and zest. Set pan over medium-high heat and bring to boil. Boil 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture reduces to 2 tablespoons.
  • Strain mixture though fine sieve to remove zest. (I'm not sure this step is really needed).
  • Place melon in bowl, toss with ginger-lime mixture. Let sit for 15 minutes. You can drain the sauce or serve it with the melon.
  • Garnish with mint (optional).
