COLD CANTALOUPE SOUP



Cold Cantaloupe Soup image

Cold cantaloupe soup has become a summer staple in my house, a quick and easy solution to the question of a first course at dinner. I have even served it in espresso cups for guests to sip with cocktails. All it takes is a ripe orange-fleshed melon, like a cantaloupe, or perhaps a musk melon from a farm stand. I chill the melon, and when I'm ready to prepare the soup, I peel and seed it, then cut it into chunks. I find that if I start with a small amount of the chunks in the blender and process them until they are puréed, I can then add the rest gradually with no need for additional liquid. The juice of one lime and salt to taste are all I add, except for a final drizzle of my best balsamic vinegar on top. You can add mint leaves, cayenne or even a garnish of diced prosciutto or feta instead of the vinegar if you wish.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe cantaloupe and honeydew melons: Look for melons that are heavy for their size, have a deep color, and yield to gentle pressure. Avoid melons with bruises or soft spots.
  • Use a good quality almond milk: Not all almond milks are created equal. Choose one that is unsweetened and made with whole almonds. You can also make your own almond milk at home.
  • Don't overcook the soup: The soup should be simmered gently for just a few minutes, until the melons are softened but still retain their shape. Overcooking will make the soup watery and bland.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little bit of heat.
  • Garnish the soup with fresh herbs and nuts: Chopped mint, cilantro, or basil are all great choices. You can also add a sprinkle of toasted almonds or pistachios.

Conclusion:

Cantaloupe and honeydew almond soup is a refreshing and flavorful summer soup that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, potassium, and fiber. With its creamy texture and sweet flavor, this soup is sure to please everyone at the table.
