About this dish

Chamoe, the small yellow Korean melon, is blended with plain yogurt and milk into a cool, slightly tangy yellow smoothie.

The seeds and the watery flesh around them are scraped out first, and the ice goes in only at the end, after the flavor is set, to keep the drink from thinning.
