Muscat Cantaloupe Salad (Vegan)

Delightfully refreshing, and delicately boozy, this Muscat Cantaloupe Salad makes both a light entrée or dessert on a warm and sunny Summer day. Happy Tuesday!

Ingredients (serves 1):

1/4 ripe large cantaloupe

2 tablespoons chilled Muscat de Rivesaltes (or another good, slightly sweet, fortified white wine)

a Marigold Flower, for garnish (optional)

Remove seeds from the cantaloupe quarter. Using an apple corer, scoop out the cantaloupe flesh into small balls, into serving bowl. 

Drizzle generously with Muscat de Rivesaltes. Toss gently, to combine and coat cantaloupe balls in Muscat. 

Chill in the refrigerator, at least a couple of hours, but preferably four.

Enjoy Muscat Cantaloupe Salad well-chilled, topped with a Marigold Flower, if desired.

Making fruit salad and I impulse bought some lavender to flavor it with, but I have never used lavender before. Anyone know how I can use it? Can I just chop it up and put it in as-is, or will the texture be weird? Simple syrup or honey infusion, or will that be too sweet?

July 2024: Mostly Daily Harvests

Monday harvest:

Tuesday harvest:

Wednesday harvest:

Thursday harvest:

Our first cantaloupe of 2024. It is delicious:

We ordered some seafood from Cameron's Seafood in Maryland. UPS manhandled the box in shipping so the styrofoam container had a crack in one corner but everything arrived safely in spite of that. We've only cooked some of the shrimp so far but they were delicious:

Thursday dinner - beef, lemon squash & kohlrabi stir fry over basmati rice with cucumber salad. With the exception of the beef, rice & kohlrabi, everything on the plate was grown in our backyard. We had never had kohlrabi before but wanted to try it to see if it might be a cool season vegetable we want to try growing for the Fall. If you've never had kohlrabi, the flavor & texture is similar to cabbage but it has an unexpected sweetness & a little of that nuttiness that brussels sprouts have without the bitterness. So, yeah, we're going to try growing some this year. Gardening, cooking & life are about trying new things & embracing the things that bring you & the ones you love joy:

Friday harvest:

QOTD: You have all the world's ingredients at hand. What do you put in your perfect salad? (If you're not a fan of salad, do soup instead)

love (:

The problem with it being practically summer weather is that i have the urge to consume my weight in either fresh fruit or pasta salad while knowing that doing either of those is not advised.

Also, i don’t have any fresh fruit other than apples and mandarin oranges but those aren’t the right fresh fruits.

Plus it’s going to drop right back down into normal April temperatures in a couple days anyway
