2929—Sorbet à la Sicilienne

Keep a very green water melon in the refrigerator for three hours.

One hour before serving, open it on top, as directed under “Surprise Melon,” and withdraw the seeds.

Then, detach the pulp by means of a silver spoon, without withdrawing it from the fruit; sprinkle it with Maraschino, and put the whole back into the refrigerator.

Dish on fragmented ice or on a block of the latter, and serve the pulp before the diners in Sherbet glasses.
