CHILLED MINTED MELON SOUP
Serve this cool minty dish as a first course or an after-dinner treat to beat the summer heat. Pre-cut melon makes preparation a breeze. While the ginger may seem like an unexpected addition, its spicy bite adds depth and elevates the flavor giving this fruit forward soup a fresh spin. For variation, you could replace the honeydew with either cantaloupe or watermelon. You can make this soup ahead and store it in the refrigerator-just give it a good stir before serving. Plan to double it to enjoy with lunch or to keep handy for a refreshing snack later in the week.

CHILLED WATERMELON SOUP
This simple, refreshing gazpacho-like chilled soup depends on the sweetness of the watermelon, tempered by the addition of olive oil, vinegar, lime juice and salt, to create the perfect balance of flavors. A little spiciness in the form of cayenne or crushed red pepper is welcome, too, as is an extra squeeze of lime juice at the table.

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.
