Cold Honeydew and Mint Soup in Cantaloupe image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Blender     Food Processor     Freeze/Chill     No-Cook     Quick & Easy     Low Sodium     Lime     Cantaloupe     Honeydew     Mint     Summer     Chill     Gourmet

Yield Makes about 6 cups, serving 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 large honeydew melon, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup loosely packed fresh mint leaves, rinsed and spun dry, plus, if desired, 6 mint sprigs for garnish
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 to 2 tablespoons sugar
3 cantaloupes, halved and trimmed decoratively

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.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe cantaloupe for the best flavor. Look for melons that are heavy for their size and have a deep orange color.
  • If you don't have a blender, you can use a food processor to puree the cantaloupe. Just be sure to use the pulse setting to avoid over-processing.
  • For a smoother soup, strain the puree through a fine-mesh sieve before chilling.
  • Serve the soup chilled with your favorite toppings, such as fresh mint, basil, or a dollop of yogurt.
  • For a vegan version of the soup, use almond milk or coconut milk instead of cow's milk.

Conclusion:

Chilled cantaloupe and mint soup is a refreshing and delicious summer soup that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up ripe cantaloupe. With its simple ingredients and easy preparation, this soup is sure to become a favorite.
