Time 2h10m

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 very ripe cantaloupe, halved, seeds removed
2 ounces water
1/4 cup granulated sugar (or other sweetener)

Steps:

  • Remove the cantaloupe seeds and scoop out all the flesh into a blender.
  • Blend the cantaloupe, water, and sugar together till they're fully combined into a smoothie consistency.
  • Freeze the granita for at least two hours or until it is icy and holding shape. Once an hour, check the granita and break it up with a fork, this will help it from freezing into a block.

  • Serve the granita at a slightly slushy consistency.

CANTALOUPE GRANITA



Cantaloupe Granita image

Provided by Michael Chiarello : Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 4h25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/4 cups superfine sugar
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup lightly packed fresh mint leaves
2 medium cantaloupes (about 4 pounds each) peeled and seeded, cut into 1-inch wedges
Pinch gray salt

Steps:

  • Combine the sugar and water over low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Add the mint. Remove the pan from the heat and let cool.
  • Puree the fruit in a food processor until liquefied. Pour the fruit into a medium bowl and add the salt. Remove the mint leaves from the syrup. Add the syrup to the pureed fruit and mix well.
  • Pour the cantaloupe mixture into a pre-chilled 7 by 12-inch glass baking dish. Place it uncovered into the freezer. Stir with a fork every 1/2 hour until almost completely frozen but still grainy, about 3 to 4 hours.
  • Cooking Notes: This works best in 2 glass loaf pans or one 7 by 12-inch glass baking dish. The only critical point here is NOT to stir it past the almost frozen state or the ice crystals will become too fine and hard to scrape.
  • Entertaining Notes: To serve, find a really interesting glass or bowl and dip it in cold water. Put the bowl into the freezer for 15 minutes; repeat. The result will be a frosted glass that looks great and sets the right backdrop for the granita.

Cantaloupe and Cream Sherry Granita image

Time to dust off that bottle of cream Sherry lurking in the back of your liquor cabinet: Its nutty, plummy nature rounds out the flavor of the melon, and its alcohol content helps produce a granita that feels smoother, less icy, on the tongue.

Provided by Paul Grimes

Yield Makes 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup water
1/3 cup sugar
2 medium cantaloupes, seeded and cut into 1-inch pieces (8 cups)
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
6 tablespoons cream Sherry

Steps:

  • Bring water and sugar to a boil, stirring until sugar has dissolved, then cool syrup.
  • Purée cantaloupes with syrup, lemon juice, Sherry, and 1/8 teaspoon salt in a blender (in batches if necessary) until smooth. Pour into a 13- by 9-inch nonreactive baking dish and freeze until partially frozen, about 2 hours. Scrape and stir with a fork, crushing any lumps.
  • Continue to freeze, scraping once or twice, until evenly frozen, about 3 hours more.
