Prosciutto & Melon Platter

A classic Italian antipasto pairing of silky prosciutto and sweet cantaloupe, elevated with fresh mint and a squeeze of lime. Effortless and elegant.

Instructions

1. Prep the melon: Halve and deseed the cantaloupe. Cut into wedges and remove the rind, or use a melon baller for a more decorative look.
2. Arrange: Lay the melon pieces across a large serving board or platter.
3. Drape the prosciutto: Loosely wrap or ribbon the prosciutto slices over and around the melon.
4. Garnish: Tear fresh mint leaves and scatter over the platter. Squeeze lime juice over everything.
5. Finish with a grind of black pepper and serve immediately.

Tips

• Use the ripest melon you can find — this dish lives or dies by the quality of the fruit.
• Swap lime for lemon, or add a drizzle of honey for extra sweetness.
