Ingredients
- 3 x Melons, in three different colors
- 1/3 c. Chicken broth
- 1/4 c. Sherry vinegar
- 1/3 c. Lemon juice
- 4 x Garlic cloves, crushed
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1/4 tsp Black pepper
- 2 Tbsp. Tarragon (fresh), chopped
- 2 Tbsp. Chervil (fresh), chopped
- 2 Tbsp. Lemon basil, chopped
Directions
- Cut melons of three different colors into melon balls and drain the balls in a colander. Save the juice to make sherbet.
- Make a very strong salad dressing of chicken broth, sherry vinegar, lemon juice, crushed garlic, salt, pepper and chopped fresh tarragon, chervil and lemon basil.
- Dress the liquid removed melon balls and let the dressing sink in for half an hour. Serve with sliced ham and toast.
- NOTES:* Margaret's X-rated melon balls - I had a lettuce and tomato sandwich Saturday with mustard instead of mayonnaise. Better than I would have feared. But the big discovery of the week is Margaret's X-rated melon balls.
- Yield: Serves 4.
- * In truth, I have to report which Margaret herself thought the garlic was too much; but I didn'teaspoon
- * This recipe is not wholly unrelated to fruit curry, another godsend for the overplump.
- Difficulty: easy.
- Time: 15 min preparation, 30 min waiting.
- Precision: no need to measure.
