FROZEN MELON WITH CRUSHED RASPBERRIES AND LIME
Inspired by packed cups of Italian ice, this frozen melon dessert is the best way to enjoy melon (besides eating it fresh). Be sure to season it with enough citrus juice to give some dimension to the melon, which tends to read as simply sweet. Frozen melon can be made two weeks ahead, either scraped or unscraped. (If scraped, store in a resealable plastic container and re-fluff before serving.)

Steps:
- Blend melon in a food processor or blender until completely smooth; you should have about 4 cups purée. Transfer to a 9-by-4-inch loaf pan (or a shallow baking dish, if you have space for it in your freezer).
- Add 1/2 cup lime juice and 2 tablespoons sugar and stir to blend; season with more lime juice and sugar, as needed. The mixture should be fairly tart and sweet. (The sweetness dulls once the mixture is frozen, so stay on the sweeter side now.) Place in freezer and let freeze until completely solid, anywhere from 2 to 4 hours, depending on your freezer.
- Once the mixture is frozen, use a spoon or fork to scrape the frozen melon into a fluffy pile of ice. If it becomes soft or melty when scraping, place it in the freezer until it's solid enough to scrape again.
- If serving immediately, lightly pack some of the ice into serving glasses or bowls. (If not, transfer the ice to a resealable container and freeze until ready to serve. The frozen melon can be prepared up to 2 weeks ahead; if scraped, it might need a little re-fluffing before serving.) Top each serving with raspberries and use a spoon or fork to crush them into the ice. Top with more ice, followed by a bit of lime zest, and then a little sumac and flaky salt, if using.

Steps:
- In a food processor or blender puree the raspberries, the peaches, the sugar, the oil, and 1/8 teaspoon of the crushed peppercorns, force the mixture through a fine sieve set over a bowl, pressing hard on the solids, and chill the sauce, covered, until it is very cold. Divide the melon wedges among 4 chilled dessert plates and pour some of the sauce over each serving. sprinkle each serving with some of the sliced basil and some of the additional crushed peppercorns and garnish the plates with the basin sprigs.
Tips:

- If you don't have a melon baller, you can use a spoon to scoop out the melon flesh.
- Be sure to remove all of the seeds from the melon before freezing. This will help prevent the melon from becoming watery.
- You can freeze the melon balls in a single layer on a baking sheet before transferring them to a freezer bag. This will help prevent the melon balls from sticking together.
- If you want to add a little extra sweetness to the melon, you can sprinkle it with a little sugar or honey before freezing.
- You can also add other fruits to the melon, such as berries, bananas, or peaches.
- Frozen melon is a great way to cool down on a hot day. It's also a healthy and refreshing snack.
