CANTALOUPE SOUP

Provided by Alex Guarnaschelli

Categories     appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large, or 2 small, cantaloupe (to yield 3 tightly-packed cups sliced cantaloupe)
3 lemons, juiced
1 cup sparkling cider (nonalcoholic)
2 to 3 teaspoons granulated sugar, optional
1/4 cup cold water, optional
1 small cucumber, peeled, seeded and diced
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the cantaloupes on a flat surface and split them in half. Scoop out and discard the seeds. Use a spoon to scoop out the flesh in small increments. The goal is to tightly pack 3 cups of cantaloupe flesh.
  • Place the cantaloupe in the blender and add the lemon juice and cider. Puree until smooth and taste for seasoning. Add the sugar, if needed. Use the water if more liquid is needed. Pour the soup into a medium bowl. Make an ice bath to chill the soup by combining some ice cubes and cold water in the bottom of a larger bowl. Put the soup in the ice bath and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
  • Season the cucumber lightly with salt and pepper. When ready to serve, pour the soup into the chilled bowls and add some of the cucumber to each.

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.
