Ingredients:

1

Salt

Directions:

1

Put the blanched almonds in a blender with 1/4 cup of the lemon juice

2

Puree until totally smooth, then add the bread and melon and puree again

3

You will most likely need to puree the melon in batches

4

After pureeing one batch, pour out all but one cup of the liquid and then add the next batch

5

Season well with salt and white pepper

6

If the soup needs more acid, add the remaining lemon juice

7

If the soup is too thick, you can add a little water, but if the melons are really ripe, this shouldn't be a problem

8

Serve slightly chilled

Garnish with toasted almonds, grapes, and a swirl of creme fraiche
