Yield: 4 appetizer or dessert servings.

Note: If you use watermelon, the soup will be thinner than when made with other melons.

Watermelon ice

1 (5-pound) piece of watermelon

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon finely shredded orange peel

3 tablespoons orange juice

Watermelon wedges (optional)

Remove and discard rind and seeds; cut up watermelon flesh (you should have about 5 cups). Puree watermelon in electric blender or food processor; do in batches, if necessary. (You should have about 3 cups puree.)

Stir together watermelon puree, sugar, orange peel and orange juice. Stir until sugar dissolves. Pour mixture into a 9-by-9-by-2-inch pan. Cover; freeze 3 to 4 hours, or until almost firm.

Break frozen mixture into chunks. Transfer chunks to a chilled bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth but not melted. Return to cold pan. Cover and freeze 6 to 8 hours, or until firm.

To serve, let stand about 5 minutes at room temperature. Scoop or scrape across frozen mixture with a spoon; mound in individual dessert dishes. Serve with watermelon wedges, if desired.

Yield: 6 to 8 servings.
