Melon Dessert Wine
|
This is one of the fastest and easiest dessert recipes around which will still make you look like a culinary genius. Just 5 minutes of prep time!
The Basic Recipe: 1. Cut a melon in half 2. Scoop out the seeds 3. Fill the melon “bowl” with a white dessert wine 4. Serve with a spoon!
What sweet wine should you use? I would recommend an Austrian Beerenauslese or Eiswein (Ice Wine). You want to use something of quality, but there’s no need to spend a fortune on the dessert wine.
Here are a few more tips to make this recipe even better, or a bit fancier:
-Use a very ripe cantaloupe as the melon
-Chill the melon in the refrigerator for a few hours or more before making the dessert & serving
-Use a melon baller, and then put the perfectly shaped melon balls back into the cantaloupe shell and pour the dessert wine over.
-For smaller portions: cut the melon halves down into smaller “bowls”. Cut the extra melon into small pieces and place those into the bowl. This method also uses less dessert wine per serving.
-Use a melon-baller, and then put the melon balls into a fancy dish and serve that way.
-Another melon-baller idea: freeze the melon balls and then put them in either the rustic melon bowl or other serving dish.
-Serve your Melon KISS with some good vanilla ice cream on the side.
Enjoy!
