Homemade syrup melon is a delightful summer preserve, perfect for savoring all the fragrance and sweetness of melon even in the cold months. Ideal for those who love to prepare genuine preserves with simple ingredients, this easy recipe allows you to highlight seasonal fruit and bring it to the table all year round.
All you need is a good ripe melon (today I bought an organic melon), a light syrup of water and sugar, a few drops of lemon, and a few minutes on the stove to get a delicious and colorful result.
How to enjoy this typical summer preserve?
Syrup melon is great served plain, with ice cream or in yogurt, but also as an ingredient for spoon desserts, pies, and cold desserts.
Making it at home is easy and requires no preservatives: a perfect solution for those who love homemade and authentic recipes.
Just below the preparation, I have placed an already published article listing the fundamental rules for safe storage.
