Melon season is in full swing here in Colorado. Our warm, sunny climate is well-suited to cultivating several types of melons. Local farmers are growing heirloom melons and I encourage you to explore them all. You may find a new favorite!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m excited to cook in the moment with you- combining melons with summer fruits and veg. We&#8217;ll explore melon varieties from the luscious orange fleshed French Charentias to sweet green honeydew melons. Tomorrow is 10 Ways Tuesday and I&#8217;ll have lots of creative ideas for cooking with melons.<\/p>\n<p>This week we&#8217;re taking a break from the usual video. We&#8217;re excited to make some changes and improvements to our Monday videos, and planning to start back up with that the first Monday in September.<\/p>\n<p>Last week I made my first contribution to the Whole Foods Market Cooking Boulder Blog, you can <a href=\"http:\/\/boulder.wholefoodsmarketcooking.com\/blog\/2454_la_domestique\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">take a look here<\/a>.

It&#8217;s a great community for home cooks and I encourage you to set up a profile and get involved.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks so much for reading, see you tomorrow!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The ingredient of the week at La Domestique is the melon.
