Ingredients

Pineapple Boats

  • 1 pineapple
  • Splash of rum (optional)

Melon with Strawberries and Raspberries

  • 1 melon of your choice
  • 1/2 pint strawberries
  • 1/2 pint raspberries
  • Splash of Grand Marnier (optional)

Oranges with Cinnamon

  • 2 Oranges (or as many as you like)
  • Cinnamon
  • Caster sugar

Watermelon

  • 1 small watermelon
  • Rose Water

Figs with Honey and Fresh Cheese

  • 4 figs
  • 2 scoops fresh cheese (fromage blanc from a farmer’s market)
  • 1 spoon light honey (acadia or wildflower)

Directions

Pineapple Boats

  1. Quarter a pineapple lengthwise, leaving green top on each piece. Slice out the core and discard. Score the flesh down to the skin. Then run a knife between skin and flesh, to liberate the pieces. What you want is the whole thing to look like it’s still intact, but be easy to eat in bite-sized cubes. You can splash it with rum if you like.

Melon with Strawberries and Raspberries

  1. Halve the melon. Remove the seeds. Fill the well with sliced strawberries and raspberries. If you want, add a splash of kirsch or Grand Marnier.

Oranges with Cinnamon

  1. Cut the skin off the oranges, going straight to the flesh. Discard the skins. Slice the oranges and arrange on a platter. Sprinkle with cinnamon and caster sugar.

Watermelon

  1. Slice watermelon into thick, childhood-sized wedges. Sprinkle with rosewater, adding only a little at first, then more to your taste.

Figs with Honey and Fresh Cheese

  1. The figs must be very ripe. Just put three figs on a plate, add a scoop of fresh cheese, such as fromage blanc from farmer's market, and dribble over a light honey, such as acadia or wildflower.
