BLACKBERRY-RED WINE GELATIN
Juicy blackberries lend sweet-tart flavor to this mint-garnished summer dessert; red wine spices up its fruity taste and adds depth. Choose a full-bodied red such as zinfandel or syrah to complement the berries.

Steps:
- Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Add 1/2 cup water and the apple juice to a medium bowl; sprinkle with gelatin. Let soften about 5 minutes. Combine wine and sugar in a small saucepan; bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve sugar. Reserve 8 blackberries for garnish; add remaining blackberries to the saucepan. Reduce heat, and simmer 5 minutes. Slowly stir hot wine mixture into gelatin mixture. Transfer bowl to ice-water bath, and stir gently until cool, about 5 minutes.
- Pour mixture into a 9-by-5-by-2 1/2-inch nonreactive metal loaf pan. Refrigerate, covered, until set, about 45 minutes, or up to overnight. To unmold, set pan in warm water until gelatin loosens, about 2 seconds; invert onto a cutting board. Use a knife to break seal along edges if necessary. Cut gelatin into 1 1/2-inch cubes. Divide among 4 small bowls. Garnish each with 2 blackberries and mint leaves.

Steps:
- To make the balsamic reduction, put the balsamic, Marsala and red wine in a heavy-based saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook until reduced by two-thirds and thickened to the consistency of honey (this will take 2 to 3 hours). Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Put the pistachios and almonds in a small frying pan over medium heat. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring continuously, until lightly brown. Transfer the nuts to a large bowl and allow to cool.
- Put the lime zest and juice in a small bowl and add the olive oil. Whisk well using a fork or whisk.
- Put the tomatoes, cantaloupe, and watermelon in a large bowl. Pour over the lime vinaigrette and toss lightly.
- Arrange the prosciutto or smoked fish (if using) over the top, crumble over the feta, and drizzle with the balsamic reduction. Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper and garnish with the toasted nuts and basil leaves.
