Cantaloupe Honeydew And Almond Bombe Recipes

Steps:

• In a shallow baking pan toast the unblanched almonds in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 5 to 8 minutes, or until they are aromatic, and transfer them to a blender. Add 1 1/2 cups water and blend the mixture until the almonds are ground fine. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve set over a bowl, pressing hard on the solids, discard the solids, and return the almond milk to the blender, cleaned. Add the cantaloupe, the honey, the lime juice, and a pinch of salt and blend the mixture until it is smooth. Transfer the soup to a bowl and chill it for 1 hour, or until it is cold. Divide the soup among chilled bowls, and garnish it with the sliced almonds and the lime slices.

Steps:

• In a blender, combine the honeydew, sugar, almond extract, and almond milk and blend until very smooth. Chill until cold.
• Use a melon baller to scoop out balls of cantaloupe, or simply cut into small bite-size cubes. Keep chilled until ready to serve.
• To serve, pour ½ cup (4 fl oz. or 120 ml) of the honeydew almond soup into a shallow bowl and top with pieces of cantaloupe.
