Melon Medley With Sweet Rose Water Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Pour rose wine into ice cube trays. Freeze until solid, 8 hours to overnight.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread out watermelon cubes so they are not touching. Freeze until firm, at least 2 hours. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag. Return to the freezer.
• Combine water and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly until sugar dissolves, 2 to 3 minutes. Add basil; bring to a boil. Remove from heat and let steep for 15 minutes. Strain simple syrup into a jar with a lid. Discard basil leaves. Place in the refrigerator.
• Place rose ice cubes, frozen watermelon, chilled simple syrup, and lime juice in a large blender; blend until combined and smooth. Pour into glasses.

Steps:

• In a wine glass filled with ice combine all ingredients and stir.

Steps:

• Whisk the flour, ground ginger, baking soda, cardamom, cinnamon, coriander, pepper and salt in a medium bowl until blended. Mix in the crystallized ginger. Set aside momentarily.
• In a large bowl beat the brown sugar, butter and shortening with an electric mixer until fluffy (do not over-beat, it will add too much air). Add the egg, honey and rosewater and beat until blended. Stir in the flour mixture with a wooden spoon, mixing until just until blended. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray 2 cookie sheets with nonstick cooking spray. Spoon the turbinado sugar in thick layer onto small plate. Using wet hands, form dough into 1 1/4-inch balls; roll in sugar to coat completely. Place balls on prepared sheets, spacing 2 to 3 inches apart.
• Bake cookies until cracked on top but still soft to touch, about 11 to 13 minutes. Cool on sheets 1 minute. Carefully transfer cookies to wire racks; cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Arrange the pancetta in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until light golden brown and crisp, about 14 minutes. Transfer the pancetta to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Finely chop the pancetta.
• Combine the honey and 2 teaspoons of the sliced sage in a small, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until it just begins to simmer, about 30 seconds (be careful, it can easily boil over). Cool to room temperature, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve.
• Spoon a little bit of the sage honey onto the flat side of a melon cube and mound a little bit of pancetta on top. Put on a serving plate and repeat with the remaining melon cubes. Sprinkle with the remaining teaspoon sliced sage and garnish the plate with the sage sprig. Serve immediately with toothpicks on the side.

Steps:

• In a large pitcher combine the rose, orange-flavored liqueur, cantaloupe syrup, cantaloupe, and honeydew melon. Stir in the water. Pour into serving glasses and enjoy.
• To make Cantaloupe Syrup:
• Seed and peel the cantaloupe and then cut the melon into chunks. Transfer to a blender and process with the simple syrup until smooth. Pour in the vanilla extract and mix to combine. Store the mixture in the refrigerator until ready to use, up to 3 days.

Steps:

• To make part of this soup ahead of time, prepare the watermelon and honeydew as directed, combine in a mixing bowl, then cover and refrigerate. Place the cantaloupe chunks in a separate container. Cover and chill for an hour or more.
• Just before serving, combine the cantaloupe, nondairy ice cream, and orange juice in a food processor and process, in batches if necessary, until smoothly pureed.
• Divide among 6 serving bowls. Place approximately 1 cup of the watermelon and honeydew mixture in each. Scatter some blueberries over the top of each serving and garnish with 2 or 3 mint leaves.
