Steps:

• Blend all ingredients in a food processor except blueberries.
• Fold in blueberries.
• Serve chilled.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add carrots and onions and saute until lightly browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Bring chicken broth, water, white wine, vinegar, and fish sauce to a boil in a large pot. Add sauteed vegetables, reduce heat, and let simmer for 5 minutes.
• Whisk heavy cream and flour together in a small bowl. Add cream to the soup, followed by sugar, garlic, bay leaf, chile pepper, fennel greens, sea salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil. Add cod, mussels, and shrimp; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and let simmer without boiling until fish is easily flaked, 8 to 10 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Steps:

• Cut the melon from the rind and into chunks. Puree until smooth in a food processor or blender. Pour into a large bowl and stir blueberries into pureed melon. Chill until quite cold.
• To serve, ladle soup into individual bowls and crumble an oatmeal cookie over each serving.

Steps:

• Cut honeydew into small chunks that your blender or food processor can handle.
• Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor (or use an immersion blender) and puree until the only solids that remain are blueberry skins.
• Strain mixture using a mesh strainer or similar device. I generally strain the entire batch twice to get rid of the majority of the blueberry skin pieces.
• Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving; I like to chill it overnight.
• Serve "plain" as is, with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream, and/or garnish with a few whole blueberries.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine water, blueberries, and sugar in saucepan. Cook and stir for about five minutes.
• Dissolve the potato flour in 50 mls of water. Remove the boiling blueberry mixture from heat. Thoroughly stir the potato flour liquid into the blueberry mixture.
• Return saucepan to stove and bring to a boil. Remove from heat as soon as the first bubbles appear.
• Sprinkle with sugar and cool.
• Serve cold with sweet rusks or cookies.
