Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup almonds, blanched and peeled
1/4 to 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 small honeydew or Sharlyn melons, peeled, seeded and cut into large pieces (6 to 7 cups melon chunks)
Salt
Ground white pepper
1/4 cup almonds, toasted and julienned
1 cup seedless red grapes, halved
Creme fraiche

Steps:

  • Put the blanched almonds in a blender with 1/4 cup of the lemon juice. Puree until totally smooth, then add the bread and melon and puree again. You will most likely need to puree the melon in batches. After pureeing one batch, pour out all but one cup of the liquid and then add the next batch. Season well with salt and white pepper. If the soup needs more acid, add the remaining lemon juice. If the soup is too thick, you can add a little water, but if the melons are really ripe, this shouldn't be a problem. Serve slightly chilled. Garnish with toasted almonds, grapes, and a swirl of creme fraiche.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover melon and grapes. It's also a great way to cool down on a hot summer day.

I didn't have any almonds on hand, so I used chopped walnuts instead. They worked great!

I was skeptical about the combination of flavors in this dish, but I was pleasantly surprised. The sweetness of the melon and grapes balanced out the acidity of the tomatoes and vinegar, and the almonds added a nice crunch.
