Ingredients

  • perfectly ripe cantaloupe, chilled in the fridge
  • pinch cardamom
  • pinch paprika
  • pinch coarse sea salt

Directions

  1. Cut the cantaloupe into wedges or 1-inch chunks.

  2. Sprinkle with the spices – a light hand will serve you well.

  3. Pop it into your mouth and let the sensations roll around your tongue: cool, sweet, spicy, salty, crunchy, tender.

  4. NOTE: Spice just the amount of melon you want to eat immediately. Like summer itself, spiced cantaloupe is a fleeting pleasure.
