watermelon soup 西瓜汤

Watermelon is a lycopene star - 1 cup has nearly 7 milligrams of the cancer fighter. Riesling adds a refreshing crispness. Serves 8

西瓜含有高番茄红素成份,可谓抗癌专家。这食谱的份量是8个人的份量,请按照人数自行加减。如果不要用里斯令 白葡萄酒就用水加糖好了。我很喜欢汤里姜的味道,很要醒神效用。夏天喝这个汤,真的会精神一振,清爽凉快 :)

6 lb (or 2.72kg) yellow or red seedless watermelon, diced (9 cups)
2 tbsp chopped fresh mint
1 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 cup lightly sweet white wine (such as Riesling) or 3/4 cup water mixed with 1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp chopped ginger
8 tsp crumbled feta cheese

Combine 1 cup of the watermelon with mint and sugar in a bowl. Set aside.
Blend remaining 8 cups watermelon, lemon juice, wine and ginger in a blender until smooth.
Let sit 1/2 hour.
Strain soup, divide among 8 bowls.
Top each with 1/8 cup reserved watermelon and 1 tsp feta.
