How to Make Honeydew Melon With Roquefort Cheese
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup honey, and the zest of 1/2 a lemon (or orange). Bring to a gentle boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
- Remove from heat and let the syrup cool completely.
- Cut 1 small honeydew melon into bite-sized cubes (about 2 cups).
- Place the melon cubes in a shallow dish and pour the cooled honey syrup over them.
- Gently toss to coat the melon cubes evenly.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably longer, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Before serving, drain off any excess syrup.
- Add 1/2 cup of seedless green grapes (halved if large).
- Spoon the melon and grape mixture into decorative cups or small bowls.
- Crumble approximately 2 ounces of Roquefort cheese (or your preferred blue cheese) over each serving.
