Anise Fruit Salad
The thing I like best about fruit salad is you can change the ingredients based on what fruits are in season. Here, a subtle anise flavor highlights a bounty of fresh fruit.

2 cups water
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon aniseed
6 cups cubed honeydew
4 cups cubed fresh pineapples
2 1/2 cups cubed cantaloupes
2 cups seedless green grapes
2 cups seedless red grapes
2 cups cubed oranges sections
1 cup sliced fresh strawberries
1 medium firm banana, sliced
2 kiwifruit, peeled and sliced
Directions:
In a saucepan over medium-high heat, combine water, sugar, lemon juice and aniseed; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; cook, uncovered, for 40 minutes or until mixture is slightly thickened and reduced by one-third (about 1-1/2 cups). Remove from the heat; cover and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine honeydew, pineapple, cantaloupe, grapes and oranges. Pour anise mixture over fruit; toss to coat. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour. Just before serving, add strawberries and banana; gently toss. Garnish with kiwi.
