The homemade syrup melon is a delicious summer preserve, perfect to savor 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 simple recipe allows you to enhance seasonal fruit and bring it to the table all year round.
Just a 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 consume this typical summer preserve?
The syrup melon is great served naturally, with ice cream or yogurt, but also as an ingredient for spoon desserts, pies, and cold desserts.
Preparing it at home is easy and does not require preservatives: a perfect solution for those who love homemade and authentic recipes.
Just below the preparation, I put a previously published article where I list the fundamental rules for safe preservation.
