INSTRUCTIONS
From this past Thursday's Food section in the Miami Herald to serve with
grilled foods.
Cook's note: Add less jalapeno than you think you might need; taste and add
more if you need to balance the fruit's sweetness.
Combine sugar, vinegar and jalapenos in a small, nonreactive saucepan.
Simmer over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and cool. In a
nonreactive bowl, combine melon, onion and sugar mixture. Stir gently and
allow to rest for at least 30 minutes, but not more than 3 hours. Toss in
mint and season to taste with salt and white pepper. Makes 7 half-cup
servings.
