01 / ABOUT THE DISH

About the dish

Gelo di melone is a traditional Sicilian dessert that most usually consists of watermelon juice, sugar, starch, candied fruit, nuts, and cinnamon. The result is a flavorful watermelon jelly pudding that is typically prepared for Ferragosto (15 August, a popular Italian holiday) and on 15 July in Palermo to honor the city's saint, Rosalia. Quite often, the dessert is decorated with chocolate chips which resemble (and represent) watermelon seeds. It is recommended to serve gelo di melone in cups, when fully chilled.
