MELON AND GINGER SOUP
Reserve melons that are so ripe, sweet and juicy that they practically fall apart when you cut them for this soup, which is inspired by a recipe by Deborah Madison. Smell the melons when you shop for them at the market; they should make you want to close your eyes and drink in their fragrance. If they're not really sweet, the soup will be bland. Both cantaloupe and honeydew are great sources of potassium and vitamin A.

Steps:
- Cut the whole melon into 8 wedges and the half into 4, and set aside two of the wedges. Remove the remaining melon from the rinds, and chop coarsely. Puree until smooth in a blender or a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Transfer to a bowl and whisk in the lime zest and 1 tablespoon of the lime juice, the salt, buttermilk, 1 teaspoon of the ginger juice, and the agave syrup. Taste and add the remaining ginger juice if desired. Cut the remaining wedges of melon into very small dice and place in a separate bowl. Chill the soup and diced melon for at least 1 hour.
- Just before serving, toss the diced melon with the mint and remaining lime juice. Ladle the soup into bowls, top with the melon and mint, and serve.

GINGER LIME MELON BALLS
I was looking for an easy, cool, summer fruit appetizer for my August wedding reception. My family made all the food for 100 guests by ourselves, so I needed something easy yet memorable. I found this recipe on a "melon web-site", AICR. It was so simple and after doing a tasting of 3 different recipes, this one was the clear favorite. If you've never used crystallized ginger, you should be able to find it in the bulk food section with dried fruits. It is NOT fresh ginger, it's like a soft, sugared, candy. You can't mince it too fine because it gets pretty sticky as you cut it. You can use any kind of ripe melon in season, but I like honeydew and cantaloupe best. Perfect for a picnic, summer brunch or a DIY wedding reception! Enjoy!

Steps:
- In small saucepan, combine juice, water, ginger and zest. Set pan over medium-high heat and bring to boil. Boil 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture reduces to 2 tablespoons.
- Strain mixture though fine sieve to remove zest. (I'm not sure this step is really needed).
- Place melon in bowl, toss with ginger-lime mixture. Let sit for 15 minutes. You can drain the sauce or serve it with the melon.
- Garnish with mint (optional).
