CHILLED BLUEBERRY SOUP

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine sugar with 2 cups water; bring to a boil over high heat. Add blueberries, wine, and lemon zest; return to a simmer. Cook, stirring, until blueberries begin to burst, about 3 minutes.
• Pass mixture through a food mill or a fine sieve into a large bowl, discarding solids. Stir lemon juice into strained liquid. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate until completely chilled, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Divide soup among six bowls. Swirl about 2 tablespoons buttermilk into each bowl, and serve immediately.

COLD HONEYDEW AND MINT SOUP IN CANTALOUPE

Steps:

• In a blender in batches or in a food processor purée the honeydew, the mint leaves, the lime juice, the sugar to taste, and a pinch of salt until the mixture is smooth, transfer the soup to a bowl, and chill it, covered, for a least 1 hour or overnight. The soup may be made 2 days in advance and kept covered and chilled. Arrange the cantaloupe halves on 6 small plates, ladle the soup into them, and garnish each serving with a mint sprig.

COLD BLUEBERRY "SOUP"

Steps:

• Cut honeydew into small chunks that your blender or food processor can handle.
• Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor (or use an immersion blender) and puree until the only solids that remain are blueberry skins.
• Strain mixture using a mesh strainer or similar device. I generally strain the entire batch twice to get rid of the majority of the blueberry skin pieces.
• Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving; I like to chill it overnight.
• Serve "plain" as is, with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream, and/or garnish with a few whole blueberries.
• Enjoy!
