Preparation steps

Remove the crusts from one slice of bread and soften in a little water.

In a food processor, blend the watermelon, tomatoes, cucumber, and red pepper to a purée. Squeeze the excess water out of the white bread and blend into the vegetable purée together with the onion and garlic. Add around 9 ounces of cold water until the desired consistency is achieved. Season to taste with lime juice, olive oil, salt, cayenne pepper, and a pinch of paprika.

Cover the soup and chill for at least 30 minutes. Cut the remaining slice of bread into small cubes and fry in butter in a pan until golden brown.

Spoon or pour the chilled soup into glasses and garnish with the croutons and the chives, including flowers. If desired, arrange in a decorative melon half with ice cubes.
