July is National Watermelon Month and one more joy of going to the farmers market. Compliments of Country Living Magazine July 2009. Garden fresh from the heavens above.
GRANITA
Puree in a blender, 4 cups of 1/2 inch size of seedless watermelon, 1/2 cup of sugar, and 2 tablespoons of fresh lime juice. Pour this into a 9x13 inch pan and place in the freezer and stir frequently with a fork until slushy. This will take about 2 1/2 hours. Pour into glasses and serve.
SWIZZLE STRICKS
Cut the seedless watermelon in 1/2 inch slices and use small cookie cutters to cut out the shapes. Thread the cutouts onto a bamboo skewers and place in the freezer on parchment paper for a short time before using.

ReplyDeleteI'd fear forgotting it in the freezer and ending up with a solid block of watermelon mush.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise, it definitely looks delish.
