Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Yield Makes about 2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 inches peeled fresh ginger
2 pounds ripe red plums, halved, pitted, and coarsely chopped, plus thin wedges for garnish (about 9 plums total)
1 1/3 cups sugar
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Pulse ginger in a food processor until finely chopped. Transfer ginger to a large saucepan. Add plums, sugar, salt, and 5 cups water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium.

Remove from freezer; scrape with fork tines, pulling from edges into center. Return to freezer. Repeat process every 30 minutes until mixture is the texture of shaved ice, about 4 1/2hours. Spoon into serving bowls, and garnish with plums.

Categories     Wine     Fruit     Ginger     Dessert     Frozen Dessert     Honeydew     Plum     Sake     Summer     Vegan     Gourmet

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup sugar
the flesh of a 3-pound honeydew melon plus, if desired, 8 thin round slices of honeydew melon for garnish
1/4 cup sake
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
pickled ginger and plum-wine granita:
2/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons pickled ginger slices (available at Asian markets and some supermarkets), rinsed
1/4 cup plum wine
2 drops of red food coloring if desired

Steps:

  • To make the granita:
  • In a small saucepan combine the sugar and 3-1/2 cups water and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring. In a blender purée the ginger with the syrup, the wine, and the food coloring, chill the mixture until is cold, and stir it.

The granita may be made 2 days in advance and kept covered and frozen. Scrape the granita with a fork to lighten the texture.
  • On each of 4 plates arrange 2 of the honeydew slices and top 1 of the slices on each plate with a scoop of the honeydew and sake granita. Top the other slices with a scoop of the pickled ginger and plum-wine granita.
